Home again
Well, here I am, home again. I ended up being stuck in Houston for a night because of all the delays, but I got to stay in a ridiculously nice hotel. And, now I'm back, frantically packing for Chicago! I'll be there on the 17th. Hope you're all ...

We Have Arrived!!!

First Day of our Spring Break Roadtrip

Day 27: Still hanging out in Dearborn
After my writing last night I realized there was one slightly funny story from the reception that I forgot to tell you. You see I was sitting at the "kids" table. Well, the table of kids in my age range who were not in the wedding party. There was one ...
Time to leave Detroit
Yesterday was a cold, rainy day here. I was wanting to take the kids to the zoo, but that didn't happen. We ended up going to Best Buy and the mall, to just get out of the hotel. We went to Red Lobster to eat, it was great, but do security guards ...

Stopped quickly at Dearborn, Michigan to find a sporting goods store before going to the airport. The cab driver had no clue where he was going but we eventually made it to a huge depressing strip mall. Bought some stuff and had a bite to eat and then ...

Day 25: Driving home, well to Detroit
After my last writing, I was able to finish up my first project just as Karyn called me because she was done her shift. So it worked out perfectly and I headed out to her house. Once there, we decided we wanted to go see a movie and drove right back to ...

So today was a more relaxing day that ended nicely with the lovely reception to the wedding of Christine and Matt Curtis. I began the day with a full breakfast buffet in the Tavern. I got up early so I could still order individual items off the menu but ...
'Twas the night before travel...
and all through the house, no one was sleeping---except for Ed. Ok, doesn't rhyme but I tried. We are mostly packed, the last of the laundry is drying, really, who has enough underwear to last them almost 2 weeks? I mean, I like to take at least two pair ...
