Trip to Baldwin City

Well, we just returned home from Baldwin City Kansas where my son is going to attend Baker University in the fall.

(see my post on the subject here) We had to attend a Scholarship Day for him to be able to receive more money.

It was a beautiful trip even though the weather was terrible. It was a cold 24 degrees and overcast and windy. Then on the way home it rained. I hate driving in the rain. But all in all it was a great overnight trip, shared with my two sons. Sharing a 5 hour drive one way in a Toyota Camry Solara with two boys, one 6`3 and the other 6`2 is a trip all by itself!!!

We stayed at place called The Lodge. They have a bunch of stuffed animals in the lobby.Like a Moose head, a Bear, Deer and the likes. It is kinda creepy but I guess it fits the theme of the place. There is a big fireplace int he lobby where all the animals are. It really is kinda cozy, even though youy have dead animals staring at you!

But I think my favorite thing about Baldwin City Kanasas is this little train car coffee joint. The guy that owns it is so nice and I swear they make the best coffee around. The next time I have to take my son up there I will make sure to take pictures so you can see what I am talking about. It is the cutest little coffee drive through I have ever seen! They make the best Hazelnut Latte I have ever drank.

The people are very friendly and accomodating and the landscape is beautiful! I could definately see me and my family living there.

I just thought I would touch base with you all and share a little something about our weekend so far!

I promise next time to have picutres. If you ever have a chance, you should visit Baldwin City!
