This morning Will and I woke up around 11:30 and started to get ready to head out. We ate breakfast with His mother and Mary and then cleaned up our messes around the house. We were packed and on our way out around 1:30. His mom followed us to the gas staition right near thier house and she paid to fill my tank so we could start our trip out with a full tank. Then we said our good-byes and we were on our way. It was just Will and I on the trip back we didn't have Rachel join us this time. It made the trip a little less entertaining without her there but we still had fun (as much as you can on a 7 hour trip). We got even better gas milage this time then we did on the way there. I was able to get 340 miles and the gas tank only showed as being 1/4 tank. But we were near an interchange before we got on our last long strech of highway for our last segment of the trip so we decided we might as well fill up there. It turns out I only needed 13 gallons of gas. We were getting 26MPG on that trip Thats amazing because I normally only get 20. I'm wondering if the repairs that the guys did on my van before the trip helped improve the gas mileage any. But anyway I was glad to see that. We made good time too we left at 1:30 and got to lychburg at 8:30. We made excellent time. We even stopped probably a total of 45 minutes worth through the trip too for potty breaks and streches ect. So instead of the estimated 7:45 that mapquest said it woudl take it only took us about 6 1/2 hours. I was glad to get back here. I missed this place =) I did have fun on the trip though, but still glad to get back. I am already unpacked and I took care of a couple christmas presents, I wrapped them and such. I might try to ship them out monday or tuesday. But anyway everything went pretty well today and I'm ready for sleep now. I'm going to try and make it to church tomorrow. So I'm off to bed! Night.
