What is getting close? SUMMER!!!

We’re heading out of Rhode Island on Saturday. It’s time to go! My latest cancer scans and tests show some improvement due to the new medication, so we will be flying west with lighter hearts.

Yay for us!

First stop: Austin. The Funny Grandson’s final band concert is Thursday night and we really, really want to be there.

Second stop: Friday the 16th we land in Spokane. Are we now ready for the lake? Absolutely!

We are not driving across country this year, thank God. While I have loved our many, many road trips, I think we should save our energy for the lake and not spend ten days traveling 3000 miles. Traffic and weather are stressful and I think we’re over it.

At least I am.

This means some very conservative packing, as we are only taking carry-on luggage (small versions) filled with only what we need for our five days in Texas. Everything else will be mailed and because I couldn’t finish my 2025 lake quilt this spring (the sewing machine has still not been repaired) the two boxes will be small.

As you all know, this has been a very intense and miserable and frightening six months. We are ready for the lake and the mountains and family and friends.

See you all soon!
