Visiting Miss Zia Joy

We took a little trip to Kansas for the dedication of Sophie and Gary's daughter, Zia Joy. It was a nice drive and a fun getaway. I doubt they have a lot of trouble with traveling salesmen, unless they are very lost! Their house is a trick to find the first time, but in a nice and very secluded location.

JUST KIDDING!!!!!
Gary built this neat little cabin 100 yards or so from the house as a getaway and picnic spot.

This is fun!

The trip down was good, but we learned a hard lesson about accidentally getting in the drive through lane at Burger King in Maryville, Missouri on game day! The rest of the trip was uneventful, we found our hotel with no problem, and then found our way into the boonies to Sophie and Gary's.

After the hayride, we returned to the cabin for a cookout.
