That’s write. I’m somewhere East of Birmingham, AL riding in the car accessing the internet. Isn’t technology awesome. Actually, so is my hubby. He bought this AT & T device that you plug into your USB drive and install, and whallah, internet on the go. Of course the device cost $100 and there’s a monthly service charge of $60, BUT there is a 30 day free trail PERFECT for our trip ’cause my hubby is frugal and why pay for internet on the go when almost everywhere you look there’s free WiFi.

So here’s a quick update. The first hour on the road is always the hardest as the kids settle in with their bad attitudes raging. The movies on our 13 inch tv we brought from the house (no built in dvd for us, we’re very behind the times and like it that way ’cause it saves us lots of money,) but this time I didn’t pack any videos. I opted for all dvds. They take up less room. But the only problem is once we hook the dvd to our tv the sound quality is so poor they kids can’t hear it above the road noise. Luckily there was one video still in the tv unit, they watched it once and the sound was really loud. Maybe next time we’ll bring videos, or have to go with modern times and get one of those built in dvds!

While on the road I wrote out several more interviews for ICRS, figured out my digital recorder, and read a little. The kids have seemed very content playing their Nintendo Dses the entire time. I’m okay with it as long as they’re not arguing and turn the sound down.

Well, it’s about time I sign off and check my email!
