We left Albany, NY this a.m. at 8:30 under cloudy skys. Now it is 3 p.m. and we are snuggled in a motel in Havre de Grace, MD as it pours and howls outside. Driving on I 95 was miserable so we got off and luckily found a motel that allows dogs and has free WiFi right off the bat. Tomorrow is going to be a better day to finish our journey back "home" to Ashland and Bearfoot IV.
Our trip north has been pleasant visiting with various family members from Scarsdale, NY, to Boston, MA and to Albany, NY. We managed to squeeze a lunch in Saratoga, NY with my sister and husband. While in Boston, I discovered two grandson's were visiting with their half Sis and their brother who lives there so we had a great reunion breakfast with the Dempsey gang in Somerville, MA. Ralph had his tests done and has to return to Albany the end of April '07 for more testing. I am not sure how this will all impact our plans for our westward adventure but I trust it will happen when the time is right.
Our new brown leather magic bed sofa awaits us in Ashland, VA and will be installed on Tues. We have eyeglasses to purchase, prescriptions to fill, wills to update, a couple of massages to enjoy and lots of turkey to eat this coming week. My grandson from VA Tech is going to be home for the weekend and since he will not be home for Thanksgiving, I look forward to this visit. He is in the Highty Tighties and they will be playing in the Thanksgiving Day Parade in Philadelphia on the 23rd. Then he is whisked back to campus for the big rivalry game between VA Tech and UVA. No tickets available for that one.
We will be rolling down I 95 on the 24th God willing and the creek don't rise.
Remember, "Life is a journey not a destination".
