Stop in for a cup of coffee

So planning a boys weekend trip in the spring for me and my soon to be 8 year old. Originally thinking about taking him to Diggers Dungeon in North Carolina but that’s 16 hours one way. A bit much for a weekend trip.

Instead, he suggested Route 66(so proud of him haha) but that’s like a two week trek. So instead I think I’m gonna take a run into central/southern Illinois, pick up Route 66 there and stop in St Louis for the night, then the following day, take Route 66 across Missouri, stay in either Joplin or Rolla maybe KC, then cannonball it back on Sunday.
