You get your kicks on Route 66, or at least some variation thereof

Hokay. So we found a shady motel just down the road from Graceland for the night. The air is thick and balmy and it kind of stinks in this motel, but: 

* Kansas was AMAZING and I love it and we saw the world famous Prairie Dog Land and Lawrence in particular was just beautiful

*  Missouri was fun

* Arkansas passed us by in a dark haze, mainly because the sun had set

* I've just seen the Mississippi in the...uh... flesh, for the first time ever. I AM EXCITED. :D 

Tomorrow, more Tennessee and Mississippi and finalement New Orleans. I love this place! >:D
