DAY THREE
I didn’t get too far today. The weather was ok but got colder as the day went on. I don’t care as I feel much better when it’s cool.
I drove to Fredericksburg, Virginia. There is a lot of good shopping there. However it is tricky to find the stores you want. They have a HOBBY LOBBY. Believe it or not they close for Sundays so the employees can spend the day with their families. It’s a wonderful idea except I was so disappointed!!!! I went to AC MOORE instead but didn’t like it. The same with Michaels. The problem was that I had trouble finding each store even though people gave me directions. I ended up buying nothing. I did go to TARGET and bought some stuff for my teeth etc.
I drove to Richmond Virginia and stopped for the night. Not much around. I went to a Sports Bar across the street for supper. The waitress and receptionist were very friendly. I finished reading the second book in the series THIRTY NINE CLUES. I started the third one. Will have to find the fourth one.
Not sure how far I’ll get tomorrow. It doesn’t really matter.
I guess the highlight for the day was I went to a SHEETZ and WAWA gas stations so I could buy a bunch of snack food – something to keep me awake on the drive. The sunflower seeds are what I’m eating mostly.
Better try to sleep some more so I’ll be alert on the road.
Your trip sounds wonderful. I would love to do it. I’m sure you’re having a great time.

ryn: Do you have a Cuttlebug? The Spell Binder Grand Calibur is similar. I have the Cuttlebug and have been happy with it. I really like the embossing folders. For cutting things out I almost only use the cricut. I use the Cuttlebug mostly for embossing. It sounds like they do about the same things though. If you don’t have the embossing option with a different gadget I would recommend it.

Sounds like a good day! Some AC Moores and Michaels are better than others. It depends on what crafts are popular in those areas. LOVE road snacks! Enjoy! Once you get to Florida is there a scrapbook specific store near by?
