Mid Move Madness

We've spent the last week splitting everything up into daughter's and ours and figuring out a timeline for her movers/truck and then packing our truck. Gary and I will end up camping out in a mostly empty house for a day after she's moved into her apartment here in Lansing.

M-Day for us is Saturday, which will be an achingly long day for me because I get to drive the car back. I'll be following Gary, who'll be driving the truck.

We won't be taking the Canadian shortcut because I won't risk crossing the border with the dogs. Our luck has been less than spectacular lately when it comes to things that are supposed to be easy. While it's usually an 8-hour drive to Rochester, I'll need to stop to rest every hour or so. I figure it'll likely be a 12-hour drive. Good thing the dogs are veteran travelers.

Home.

Just a few more days.

Most definitely \o/

Yay for going home! I know you'll be relieved for things to go back to normal. :)

Since you're not going through Canada, I'm guessing you'll be driving through here. Give me a mental wave when you pass Toledo. :D
