COVID-19 Quarantine Day 77

Good morning!  I've been working for the last couple days on cleaning the house, back yard, and deck really well.  We're having guests over for dinner tonight, the engineers Michael works with and their families.  I've missed having people over.  Michael always says he doesn't mind when we host people because it forces us to clean the house really well.  Well I can tell you, our house looks awesome!  Our room is always the part that gets overlooked though.  We just close the door and keep people out of there.  That might be a next week kind of project.  But I got the bathroom cleaned up last week, so at least part of it is done.  And, honestly, once laundry mountain is folded and put away, things will look a lot better in there.  Once the house is all clean I might start packing some stuff for our vacation!!  😁  I'm getting excited for it!  It's only 4 weeks and 1 day away!!  Here's our tentative itinerary at the moment...

Friday, June 26th - Drive to Glenn and Linda's house after Michael gets off work

Saturday, June 27th - Leave Glenn and Linda's house super early to begin our all-day drive to Murfreesboro, TN (9 hrs 45 min, 660 miles)

Sunday, June 28th - Hang out with Chuck and Shanna in Tennessee 

Monday, June 29th - Drive to Austin, KY (1 hr 45 min, 90 miles) 

Visit Kenny's Farmhouse Cheese Farm

Tuesday, June 30th - Visit Mammoth Caves National Park (2 tours if we can schedule it right)

Drive back to Murfreesboro, TN (1 hr 45 min, 90 miles)

Wednesday, July 1 - Stones River National Battlefield?

Thursday, July 2 - Nashville?

Friday, July 3 - US Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL?

Saturday, July 4 - Fireworks a la Nashville?

Sunday, July 5 - Drive home?

As you can see, the first half of the trip is pretty set.  The second half is more open.  We're even open to taking the drive home over 2 days and Michael taking Monday off too, stopping in St. Louis, and showing the kids The Arch.  We'll see.  We're still talking.  Alabama is one of our flexible states.  We can add it to this trip or it will be a part of our Gulf Coast trip.  So I guess I have to figure out which we'd like to see more, the Space and Rocket Center or Mobile, AL.  Of course, at the moment, the Space and Rocket Center is closed, so COVID-19 could make the choice for us.  🤷🏼‍♀️

I need to go finish cleaning, but I hate sweeping and mopping and I's rather sit here on the deck and listen to music and drink coffee.  😊
