After an unforgettable stretch in the Grand Tetons, it was time to point the truck east and begin our journey home. Our first night on the road was all about convenience as we tucked in at a KOA just off the interstate. The following evening, we traded freeway noise for the quiet charm of C2T Ranch in Kansas. Horses grazed nearby, and a curious donkey kept us company.
Next, we made our way to Missouri to visit my sister and her husband. My parents were there too, with their motorhome. We went out to dinner, shared stories, watched the chickens peck around the yard, and spent time playing Settlers of Catan and Rummikub. It was a short visit, but it was so nice to see them. We’re already looking forward to seeing my parents again in a few weeks when they drive out to Delaware.
After saying our goodbyes, we drove on to Milton, Indiana, where we spent the night at Cobbler’s Knob, a peaceful corn and hay farm tucked into the countryside. The miles may be long, but these simple moments help make the trip unforgettable.
