<h2>{{ .Title }}</h2>
<p><i>It's spring break this week, and seeing as there are lots of things planned, I figured I'd jot down the main points each day.</i></p>
<p>Finally, it's time to head back home. I'm really looking forward to it, and I'll have Ben and Rex joining for the majority of the trip. I tried to pack light this time, bringing only a few bags and a jacket.</p>

<p>We got everything packed and left around 10:00am.</p>

<p>Stoping for gas an and errand run, we finally hit the road for real around 11:00am.</p>

<p>We made it to Wisconsin by 5:00pm. Just in time for the huge storm passing through. There were some tornado warnings for towns a bit north of where we were headed, and we got a decent chunck of that storm, with hail, wind, and heavy rain.</p>

<p>Luckily the rain died down a bit, and we made it to dinner with my dad.</p>

<p>We got back to my mom's around 7:30, and I pulled out the CJ-7. I really just needed to drive something and was eager to pull it out of the garage. We cruised around town for a bit and stopped by the bay before heading back home for the night.</p>

<p>I finally was able to set up my subwoofer I got from another friend a while back, so we spend the rest of the night testing it out.</p>

<p>Overall, it's been another great day. Lots of plans for tomorrow, including a haircut and picking up Ángel from Milwaukee.</p>
