Another Whirlwind Weekend: a house log

It is only been a week since we told you about our last whirlwind weekend and we have already topped it with an even crazier weekend adventure. In fact this one was so nutty that it in fact lasted six days, took us through ten states and required forty hours of driving. Yep, you read that right. Four. Zero.

What possessed us to embark on such a trek? My cousin was getting married in Dallas, TX and I had some spare vacation days. And what can we say, we are suckers for a good road trip. So last Thursday we set out westward from Richmond spending about 10 hours in the car on each of four legs of the trip. We took a day long break in Nashville to see the sights and eat some BBQ with two of our go-to home bloggers (where we were spotted and nearly outed on our secret romp across the southeast). We at last pulled into Dallas for a vivid Sunday wedding before jumping back in the car for two more days of driving back towards Richmond, this time via Birmingham.

Yes it was a lot of driving, but it was also a lot of lively. We got back to Richmond late Tuesday night simply bursting at the seems with stories, pictures and videos to share with you folks. From the funky hotel we stayed in with the Bowers and a swift how-we-travel-with-Burger video to my cousin’s striking Hands-on wedding decor, we can barely decide where to start. And that is not to mention the footage we captured of our four ten-hour driving days courtesy of our homemade dashboard camera (fashioned from a tripod and some classy white duct tape).

So as we like to say around here, stay tuned. There are a slew of home-related posts about our days on the road to be written. We promise to get began simply as soon as we stop seeing road signs in our sleep…
