In January of this year, one of my brothers realized his boyhood desire of driving an 18-wheel truck for a living. I am not sure what inspired this dream, whether it was our neighbor across the street who also drove a truck for a living or the endless number of movies about truck driving that were filling theaters at the time, I do not know. Either way, he is driving all over the United States and at least once a week, he sends me a text message with his pick-up and drop-off locations for the week. We have been tracking them on a large map. Princess TD and Little TD take turns adding cities to the map.
We ended up changing the original small map pins for larger ones that would show up in the picture. We have also decided to track Daddy’s travels as well. The white pins are where my brother travels, and the dark purple pins are where Mr. TD travels. We are on track to learn most of the states in the continental US by the end of the school year. I think it is time to pull out our Star Spangled State book and learn more about each of the states where our family travels.
Happy Birthday Uncle Brian!!!
