Gettin' Ready to Roll!

Well, I though I was opening it up to comments, but in my rush to get that change in the works I failed to note they said "all new posts will allow comments." My brother, who is genetically predisposed to being a little smarter than the average bear, found that the first post here (way at the bottom) had a comment option. ;)

By the way, Rich, when I told Glen about the Garmin, he said he might just think about getting one in Albuquerque. They have an REI, and we don't (a major selling point for the city), and they also have a selection of the topographical ones. He is thinking about getting one to use for Geography classes.

Got the car checked out for the trip. All is well. We serendititously (a word?? yes? no?) discovered yesterday that the battery does not hold a charge well when one of us didn't turn the ignition off all the way, and the battery drained but would not recharge properly. It was a fairly new battery, so the store replaced it free.

The suitcases are ready to be packed. I think we managed to sneak them past the cat. I don't think she has yet realized that Summer Camp is in her future. She stayed with our vet whose assistants think she is just adorable, so it is hardly a rough go for her.

Jenny has her tickets locked in for the weekend of the Fourth in Albuquerque, and we are waiting to see if Matt can get the time off that weekend as well.

I'm starting to get psyched!

Critical Mass

I guess we have reached that point where everything is poised to be done, but we really can't do much more until the last minute.

As of today, I am opening the blog to comments.
