IT'S ON! With just today left for preparations, it's time to do all the last things. My sister and her grands will be heading home in a few hours. At about that same time, my son will arrive with my elder grandson! Now it's all about the timing.
Between now and departure time, I've got to pick up what I now know will be a Chrysler Pacifica van from Hertz, finish assembling our gear, load the van and run a few last errands -- pick up a phone for Mom, hit the auto-teller for some cash, hit the grocery for a few last things.
We're pretty excited to get on the road but, not being morning people, our departure will be late morning, not crack-of-dawn! I'd say everything is kicking into high gear, but I'd be lying! I've made enough of these trips in my lifetime to know that whatever I forget we'll either get along without, or replace down the road. We'll all work through the list of "last things" and sometime after 11:00 p.m. we'll say our good nights, NOT set an alarm, wake around 9:00 a.m, don our new road-trip shirts, and be ready to roll sometime before 10:00 a.m.
All future posts will be entirely dependent upon our ability to access the internet via cellular or wifi. We'll take lots of pictures -- you won't miss a thing!
