Every day the anticipation mounts. We've been planning this trip for nearly a month now and I can't wait to get going. All our shopping trips are exciting but I'm especially anxious for this one because we'll be covering some ground we haven't traveled in over a decade: Sioux Falls, SD, Sioux City, IA and Walnut, IA. We might pop into Omaha if time permits.
Every trip - including the ones we take on a regular basis - is unique. Even if the territory we're covering is familiar we seem to be constantly maturing in our quest. Sometimes we're looking for items that never interested us in the past or, even better, we're on a mission to find a long lost treasure for one of our loyal customers.
I have my "wish list" prepared and my bag is backed. John has prepared the truck. The oil is changed, the tank is filled and the truck's bed is lined with boxes to safely nestle our new found treasures. Now all that's left is to hit the road again.
Don't worry: I'll be sure to update you and post pictures of our discoveries!
