65 degrees and we're here!!!

Okay, we only left an hour past our deadline. As you can see, we left at 10:59 instead of 10:00. I would like to blame my brother, Harry, for part of that delay as he called just as we were about to leave! We got here in 7 hours. It was a nice uneventful ride, although we did witness a house fire and a bad car accident. Sandy, Joe and Sophia saw us off and provided us with a nice snack/entertainment box which we managed to wait 2 hours before opening. Thanks guys, we loved the music, especially 'Jeramiah was a Bullfrog.' We have seen green grass, flowering trees, daffodils, tulips and someone was actually mowing their lawn. Sophie was already seen frolicking in her bare feet. We have found spring!

The puppies did remarkably well. No vomit, which is what I was hoping for. We are in for the night now and will decide tomorrow whether we hang out here for another day, or move on further South. It would be nice to find 70 degrees!

Have a good night all, we'll talk more tomorrow.

Love to all...

What are the chances we'll get outta here today?

28 degrees

It's 28 degrees outside and the forecast is for 4-7 inches of snow starting tonight, through tomorrow. The pressure is on to get outta town. The girls are still sleeping. The puppies are up. I'm starting to feel some palpitations at the thought of leaving Hugh. I'm sure he'll be fine, but it's hard to break the ties... My bag is packed, the girls are sortof packed with a few things still strewn around the living room. I have no idea what time they got to bed. They were still up playing Rock Band and Mario Cart with Kiel* when I left at 10:30. I hope they aren't crabby today! Sophie doesn't believe that we'll make it to Kentucky today. She says that her friends say that you can't drive through 4 states in one day. Seventh Graders, shows you what they know, or don't know! Well, I've got some last minute kitchen cleaning to do and then I'll get the girls up. The next entry will probably be from a Starbucks!

Love to all...






*Kiel is our nephew on Hugh's side who moved to Madison this year for college. We love him sooo much. He now has 'two sisters' he never knew he wanted!!!
