Traveling

This pilgrim's journey with my wife will include a trip and visit with our daughter, Carol Erion, and her family - husband Donald, daughter Rachel, daughter Sarah and husband Andy and son Jackson, and daughter Anna (our oldest grandchild) and husband Matt and son James. We're surely looking forward to this time together, which will include a birthday party for Jackson and a Christmas eve party for all.

We're traveling by car a day earlier than previously planned due to the weather forecast. We're not sure when we'll return since I'm committed to not drive on anything but dry pavement, but we are hoping for a return in a week.

Traveling is a bit more difficult these days than it used to be, whether one travels by plane, train or automobile. We haven't traveled by train for many a year, but plane travel has gotten a bit more complicated, and certainly traveling the interstates has as well. I'm one of the old fuddy duddy guys on the road now as I drive about five miles under the limit and let everyone else go around me. Most of them are going to pass me anyway, so I might as well get out of their way and drive a bit more safely.

So I probably won't be blogging much the next week or so. Here's to wish all two or three of my readers a very blessed Christmas season.
