I found the pictures. So this was a trip me and my wife took back in October 2010 going from North Carolina to Kansas City and back. As I mentioned, Samuel L. Jackson and Alan Alda tagged along. The first stop was a hotel in Illinois:
...a little crank calling on Alda's part...

...some TV time....

...and finally bed.
