Today Was My Day (Day 2790 - 7/15/17)

Previous Vlog (Day 2789) | Next Vlog (Day 2791)

Stephen and Mallory leave Richmond, VA to begin their last leg of the journey home, but make sure to make a stop at Rocky Mount, NC to see Seth for lunch.

On the way to Rocky Mount, Stephen gets pulled over by the cops for cutting in front of someone dangerously, but luckily, he gets off with just a warning.

Anyway, they manage to get to Rocky Mount safely and catch up with Seth at Pizza Inn for some pizza buffet.

Some time later, they make it home and they're glad to be home after being away for such a long time. Also, they drove so much in the past 12 days that the car's going to need another oil change, despite changing it right before they left.

They head over to Debra and Steven's house for dinner, and to share their trip with them. They also give Deb some tea cookies from Lorenzo's Bakery, which Stephen got for her yesterday.

Stephen reveals that they probably travelled 3300 miles, which is 200 miles shy of how much they traveled during their road trip in 2014.

Back at the house, Stephen shares that not only did they talk about the trip with their parents, but they also showed Stephen's parents what Mallory has been working on for the past few days: a family tree for Stephen's family.

Because of her research, they've uncovered some interesting things, like a connection to Germany on his dad's side and Irish on both sides. Debra also took out her mom's family bible, which has a collection of family information, to supplement the family tree research.

Finally, before ending the vlog, Stephen double-checks the dash cam footage and concludes that he did cut a person off, though he didn't realize it at the time. He adds that it's the first time he's ever been stopped by a cop, though he has gotten parking tickets before. It just so happens that today was his day to get pulled over.
