Heading home

We are at the welcome center in Illinois. We just bagged the dirty laundry, as we realized packing up for home would be a tricky job. That's because so much has to wait for the last minute! The breeze is a big blessing in the 94 degree heat. We inaugurated our trip with a few boxes of ice cream sandwiches. It seemed to help everyone perk up! I explained to Giddy that if you leave your hands wet after you wash them, it helps you stay cool. I asked him if he ever wondered how an air conditioner worked.

"I'm too busy to think about that," he replied.
