We drove about 1500 miles and this was the first railroad track we saw! Centralia, Illinois. I guess we haven't seen a train since last August either.
We arrived at Grandma Langin's early in the morning Thursday, December 23. We were still on New York time so in Illinois it was actually an hour earlier. We parked in front of her house and all slept until she woke up and came out to get her newspaper.
Abby is covering her eyes from the bright flash of the camera. It was completely dark outside at that time.
The kids playing on the front porch.
What a sight we must have been! Kevin went straight upstairs and slept the entire day. The girls had slept in the van and settled in to play. Serena couldn't wait to get a shower and put on clean clothes. She and Lilly took a long afternoon nap. The dogs slept in a pile of blankets on the porch and the cats slept in the van.
We set out that evening for West Frankfort to visit Kevin's mom.
