Roll on Highway

Ma's friend, Shelly, had a son getting married this past weekend. Those who were able (Shelly and Kait) skipped out on work for two days and hit the road. Take off time was Thursday night at 9:30 PM. Ma deemed us "Foolish, foolish girls" for leaving so late.We stopped at 12:15 AM at a Super 8 where we set off the loud, obnoxious, honking alarm.
Friday at 6:15 we hit the road again. We stopped to grab this meal. The breakfast of champions. Neither had ever had Bojangles' Boberry Biscuits before. They were tasty, but Ma said they were nothing to write home about. Sausage biscuits, boberry biscuits and Diet Dr. Pepper...and 30 minutes later we were wondering why we felt so sleepy.
Ma drove the entire road trip (it costs more to have an underage-25 or less person on a rental car contract). She was a driving champ. Here she is with her faithful friend: coffee. Why use a rental car? She loves them. She rents them for the same reason she always buys the sampler plate at restaurants. She likes to switch things up...cars, food, hairstyles...
We made sure to snag the last easy-to-find-ChickfilA somewhere in Virginia. This state greeted us with some cooler weather.
Some scenery in VA. Did you know that Virginia is chock full of cows? There aren't any in this picture, but there were practically everywhere else. They were probably on the left and right of this picture, we're sure.
A road trip isn't complete without matching straw hats from Target.
Hello, PA, hello.
A cute goodie bag waited to welcome us to the wedding festivities and to Robin's house.
