Road Trippin' with Karen

Another Federal holiday means another day off for Kevin. So that means an great opportunity to get out of Fayetteville. As part of our V-day presents we decided to get a GPS (Circuit City going out of business saved big $$) to help us out on our little road trips. Her name is Karen and she has an Aussie accent (why Aussie? why not! it gives her personality) So where to today. We looked at going to the northern part of NC, but it was too cold. So we headed south. We figured it would be balmy instead of down right cold. We narrowed it down to SC since Billy and Melissa will be moving there this summer we thought we would see what we could find. Well, we found a zoo in Columbia, only about 2 1/2 hours-ish from here and easy as pie with Karen as our co-pilot. The trip home was another story we hit traffic on I-95 and it took us 2 hrs to go 15 miles....that made for an almost 5 hour ride home. Below are some photos of our fun filled adventure.....
He is just so over joyed at the thought of being at the Zoo...
Some fun animals we met along the way

It looks like the trip took a toll on both and they are still asleep on the sofa
