(My sister and I had a great day exploring an island, the parents went antiquing which they love and which would have bored us to tears, and they did pick us up at the end of the day. But in retrospect I have to wonder if they considered not coming back....)

There are several within an hour of my parents house, and most have vacancies this weekend. It will be fun, if I can find everything we need to pack and get that done after work.mommeeof10https://www.blogger.com/profile/03611832953435781430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-50044896988057639662013-08-22T08:23:42.068-04:002013-08-22T08:23:42.068-04:00I am glad you survived the trip.
