20 Nov 2015 (335 days after The Day)

We stayed the night in a hotel in Mansfield.  We left that morning and went by Jan's grave.  I know I am leaving Jan's body but I really feel like she is traveling with us.  A silent companion of sorts.  We stopped by Kroger to get some dry ice and was told they were out.  We stopped back by the house for the last time and packed an entire cooler of donated breast milk from the freezer.  We located a dealer of dry ice and drove out of our neighborhood for the last time.  We ended up having to purchase another cooler and splitting the dry ice amongst the two coolers.  We finally got on the road.  About 4 hours into the trip Mayflower called to say our shipment would be delayed until probably December.  It was frustrating news but really nothing I can do about it at the moment so we traveled on.  We hit Amarillo by dinner time and ate at "The Big Texan" which is famous for their challenge to eat a 5lb steak and all the side dishes within 1 hour.  There was evidence of failed attempts in the parking lot.  I kinda thought someone would be on vomit patrol in the parking lot.  Not something you really want to see when you go out to eat.  It was different from what I recall but a memory builder nonetheless.  We decided to drive on... and landed in Santa Rosa NM.  What a day.
