City Museum!!

Today's main objective was the City Museum.   Our family has been here twice, but it's ever changing, so every experience is new!!  We arrived at the City Museum around noon and raring to go!!   Between the slides, buses hanging off of the side of buildings, and the obstacles.... we were fully entertained!!  As short as this blog as... that's about it.  ;)   If you haven't figured it out...we are pretty exhausted!!

Homeward Bound Part 2

We woke up in Sidney, Nebraska, a charming small town.  Interestingly, there was a big sign at the gas station that said "You are Nowhere."  We decided to move on rather than explore because the water park in Grand Island, Nebraska was calling our name. When you're driving the great plains, a city named "Grand Island" is a curiosity.  That being said, the drive through Nebraska is much different than I thought it would be - different than the vast, beautiful, and picturesque S Dakota to the north and the equally vast, sparsely populated, and inhospitable Kansas to the south.  Nebraska had signs of life throughout the I-80 corridor, probably because this is the same corridor that the Oregon Trail and the pony express followed.  We saw the same South Platte, and Platte Rivers that the early travelers saw.  Because people have been traveling through this area for so long, many communities had a chance to spring up along the way, and unlike I-90 and I-70,...

Welcome to our travel blog!!  Tomorrow at 3:00 p.m. CST we embark on our next adventure... Some of you may be wondering about our blog name, "Ten Hearts To Three Parks."  Years ago, when I was a young mom of a 3 year old, a 1 year old, and a newborn, I would often contemplate that as I drove around town, I had 3 beating hearts - and as their mom, I was responsible for those beating hearts... their lives.   Even though it was a little scary to realize the responsibility of keeping those hearts beating... it was equally an endearing moment- thankful for the gift of family. Sometimes family expands to more normal definitions...   Friendships are found ....  built.... trusted.   So this year, for our typical Griswold-esque road trip, our family has invited our dear, dear friends to adventure along with us; Stephanie Bentley and her three children Lily, Sophie, and Bentley,  (10 hearts total) will be exploring Custer State Park (and South Dakota), Yel...

Homeward Bound Part 1

We left Jackson Hole yesterday morning.  It's about a 24 drive from Nashville (with no stops which makes it about 32 hours for our family) which makes it seem closer to home.  I love Wyoming . . . it is chock full of beauty and history. We left the northwest corner of the state yesterday morning and after winding through the mountains surrounding the Jackson area, we went almost due south in a wide valley between two distant mountain ranges.  I ran into a family at a gas station in this remote area.  The daughter will be a sophomore at Vanderbilt . . . small world.  Soon afterward, we passed the Big Sandy River where the Oregon Trail had crossed at this point 150 years ago.  This was an area where mountain men once engaged in the fur trade and where they would gather together.  The local communities are aware and proud of this heritage.  We continued heading southward and after passing through the southwest portion of the state, we headed due ea...
