IL to VA - the trek

All went well until we got to Columbus...
We hit the city around 5PM, and shortly thereafter a big Dodge PU hit us. Family if you are reading this, we purposely did not tell you as did not want you to worry. We were fine, just one pi**ed off mama. Not what I wanted to deal with, but happy no injuries. So my first week will now involve a rental car, new bumper and new hatch door for our beloved SUV. Urrggg.

So we camped out shortly after the accident in Cambridge OH. Thought about taking the plants in, but was afraid to open the hatch for fear it would not reclose. Good idea, because it wouldn't have. Chris assured me it wouldn't get too cold for the plants. Woke up to this:

We trek on!
