“What color do you want to make Kentucky?” Cinnamon asked Madison. They sat at the table and Madison surveyed her supply of colored pencils. “We’ll circle around and end up back in another part of Kentucky when we return home.”

She traced the route they were taking this time. Kentucky, to Illinois, through the Great Lake states, over through New England, and down into the Virginias and back to Kentucky and then home. Thirteen states, twenty-one shows, almost as many radio interviews, and twenty-three days before they returned home for a five-day break.

“Wow, that’s a lot of states.” Madison exhaled as Cinnamon’s finger finally traced home.

Out of the mouths of babes. “It is. The next one won’t be as many or as long.”

“Maddie, I think you should use a blush color, to go along with your Auntie Cinnamon’s new cheek shade,” Mac said from her spot in one of the captain’s chairs where she was snacking on chips and watching some show.

“I’m not blushing!”

“Yeah, you are. You have been.”

Her mouth opened to argue but arguing with Mac was just plain pointless. She sought Rissa and Taylor as voices of reason, since Katie Lyn was riding shotgun.

“Well, since you mentioned it, yeah, you do have a sort of that guy blush.”

“That guy?” What was Rissa talking about?

“Um hmm,” Rissa nodded. “The look you start wearing when you meet that guy. The only one who can do that.”

“So, what’s his name, Cin?” Taylor asked.

She pulled a pillow out from behind her. Good thing they stocked their bus with plenty of throw pillows. And now she knew why they were called that. “There isn’t a that guy.” Her tone dipped to sarcasm at the last two words.

Taylor set aside her crossword puzzle. “Is it that contractor you hired?”

C.C. smirked. “Maybe he’s fixing more than just your house.”

Cinnamon threw the pillow at C.C.’s head. It bounced off and she plucked it up, taking aim at Cinnamon.

“I have a child here. No throwing because you could hit her.” She cradled Maddie to her side. “Sweetie, this is a good example of how not to behave.”

“Even though Cinnamon started it.”

“Mac did.”

“Girls, you all sound like a bunch of children. You’ll confuse Maddie sure as tea is sweet.” Lynette admonished, leaving her bunk to come sit at the table with Cinnamon and Madison. “Now, did you decide on a color for Kentucky? I like green. Do you see all the lush green grass?”

“It is called the Bluegrass State,” Mac said drolly.
