Day #2 Down: Only 1,329 miles left!

Thanks for all the comments everyone! This has been a fun experience for us...we feel like we are on our trip with you all :) Today we went from Nashville, TN to St. Louis MO - definitely not as fun of a drive as yesterday - in fact I took a little nap 0:) BUT, there were still some cool things to see...and St. Louis is AWESOME! Here are more pics (and a video) for your viewing pleasure :) **BTW** Start from the bottom and work your way up for a true timeline of events :P **


We didn't win, but we had a great time anyway!! :)


On our way to the casino...the best part of this shuttle ride was definitely the woman driving us - on her phone talkin' bout "Oooh girl, no she didn't!" Classy.


Getting ready to hit up The Landing and maybe win some money?? Noone make fun of my crazy right eyebrow - it is out of my control. :(


J and Gus watching the Magic vs. Hawks game - it's Game #1 in the Second Round of the NBA Playoffs. They went on to CRUSH the Hawks...wahoo!




Busch Stadium - where the Cardinals play. Too bad they are playing away this week!


Pretty little park where the Arch is located - perfect place for a nice little run in the morning! Yes, Adam - I will be running with J, but you are still my running partner! :P


The only thing that stinks about taking a "couples trip"...every pic of you together is from point blank range! :(


I don't like to pat myself on the back too often - but this pic is awesome!






Believe it or not, this is the view from our room!


Our room - Gus is so nervous to be in yet another hotel - poor dog!


Our hotel - RIGHT next to the Arch!


The Arch - you can see it from so far away!


We made it!!!




And yet, ANOTHER farm.


Welcome to Illinois!


Neat little bridges over the Ohio River


Looks like hemorrhagic E. Coli to me! :/


Sounds yummy right???


Farm #43....


Farm #1


One of the prettiest Rest Areas I've ever seen!


We got to drive through two other states today - Kentucky was nice, but very "farmish".


Part of the flooding - VERY sad!


Made me think of my bestie! 0:)


HOW RANDOM! We randomly saw the one and only person we know in Nashville while walking on campus - great seeing you Jess!


The Fam :) We stayed and ate lunch in this beautiful area.


J and Gus...just as cutsie as ever :)


Gus and I on Vanderbilt's Campus...I have to say, I am extremely biased towards UF, but the campus can't even compare - it was GORGESIMO!


Gus is SO spoiled - sleeping on our bed before we hit the road.
