Emilio: "Captain’s Log Star Track Date 5-21-15
"We helped take stuff inside ECU. We came back home to get towels. Pretty dull so far. We just stopped for gas. We made it out of Ada. So long Roff. Never mind we’re going back home. Still at home. We just saw a horse. Made it out of Ada again. So long Roff. On our way to Davis. Went under our first bridge. I don’t know why I wrote that. Made it to our first tollbooth. I saw the first star. Man in the moon is smiling. We’re in Davis. We’re finding a restaurant. Daddy is rubbing his beard. We found a restaurant. Mexican food!
"We just crossed the red river. We made it to Fort Worth. We made it to Granddaddy and Grandmother’s house."
*This Captain's log has been transcribed by Emilio from the notebook he updated throughout our summer trip. Keeping a journal during the trip was entirely his idea. Granddaddy suggested that he call it the Captain's Log. I suggested that he transcribe it here.

Emi, I am enjoying your log. Thanks for sharing it. I like to keep a log when I travel too. Aunt C
At first, I thought, "I have already read this. How can that be? I wasn't at the house in Ada..."
Oh, Duh. I read it after you got to my house.
Grandmother still has her journal from our trip to Spain before you were born. We love reading it and remembering.
I kept a journal, too, but I wrote about what I was thinking, not so much about what we did.
Thanks for putting this out here for us all to share.
Thanks for the comments!
When we come again Granddaddy can I see that journal of yours?
Emilio
If I can find it, you can read it. Grandmother's will be more interesting though.
