Vacation, May 2010

I don't actually know why I haven't posted my Missouri vacation tweets to this blog until now. In May 2010, my niece decided to get married in Branson, Missouri, near her and her fiance's school. She had graduated from art college the week before. My parents, her paternal grandparents, decided to drive to Arkansas and Missouri to take in both events. Since it was a christian art college, I decided to skip that ceremony, but I thought it'd be nice to be there for the first third-generation wedding in the family. My brother, the father of the bride, and his wife's family would be there, and at least 1 member of my sister's family of 5 would be there.

Unfortunately, I was unemployed at the time (still am, in fact), so my budget was extremely limited. I decided I couldn't afford to make the trip if I couldn't share a room with my parents. They reluctantly agreed, but I had no say in anything, they still being my parents, I guess. So we stayed in a Motel 8 only because they are big Motel 8 fans, non-smoking (I smoke, they don't anymore), with two standard-size beds. Now my parents share a bed at their home, but apparently they like to spread out away from home, so they didn't want to give me one of the beds! They wondered if I could rent a cot (not available), and even considered me sharing one of the beds with my mother! Luckily, my brother showed up the first day with an inflatable mattress!

The blog for this week-long vacation starts here: Sunday 9 May 2010 and continues through the week:

Since yet another day got lost, the actual posts are out of order, and the filenames of the actual posts have the wrong date on them.

Thursday 13 May 2010

another day got lost :( I copied the other days from contemporary email but this day's email of tweets somehow got lost. I had to add an hour to each of the timestamps, presumably for being in the Central time zone. I have no other notes about what we might have done this day so apparently we just sat around all day. I think it rained hard all day.
