Wow ... I have literally had no time to update this since last week. We have been working long days since last Monday and it is not slowing down. I spent last week in Chicago doing training in the office at Marketing Werks. I got to know some amazing people who I will hopefully stay friends with for long after this adventure.
We headed to New Berling, Wisc on Thursday night to do training at CGS premier all weekend. I would compare it to a boot camp. It consisted of training on how to drive the vehicle with the trailer, setting up/tearing down the event site, and spending a lot of long hours in the freezing snow.
Monday afternoon in the midst of what turned into Snowmeggedon we finally "launched" out of Wisc and began the journey to the .... SUPERBOWL!!!! What we thought was going to be a nice sunny ride to the south turned into a disaster. We did get to stop in Des Moines for some nice home cooking from Mom :) Then Tuesday we left Des Moines for Tulsa .... thats when the snow began. We were now driving in the "worst snow storm in history." Complete white out. We got stranded in Cameron, Missouri in a disease, hair infested motel with no food. We left first thing today to get out of that town as fast as possible with hopes of making it to Tulsa. The day started wonderfully, we picked up delicious Starbucks in Kansas City and were happily on our way. To sum up the day it took us 11.5 hours to drive .... 286 miles. Ridiculous! We have now rerouted and are staying the night in Fayeteville, Ark with hopes of making it to Dallas tomorrow.
I promise I will do much better at keeping this updated!! miss you all!!
xoxo
