Heading to the Great White North!!

It has been very nice being off the last couple of days from work (I had a bunch of vacation to burn that I lose at the end of the year).  Going to bed and getting up late has been very nice (I am really a night owl forced to live among the day people).

Well tomorrow that will not be the case because I’m heading to my parents.  Being one to not want to waste the entire day driving, I have made the resolve to pick up Cari and head out at 6:00 AM.  The hope is that we won’t have to look at Iowa because it will be dark until we get to Wisconsin—or as I like to call it “The Promised Land”.

 

It will be good, though.  To see my family, hills, pine trees and STARS! will be good.  I have been itching to get home for some time.  As much as I believe that living in the city has so many benefits (and that the majority of people on earth should really live compactly in the city for ecological reason) I do miss so many things of living in the country—particularly the ‘north woods’. 

 

It should also be an adventure for Cari as well.  She has not met my family yet and it was decided that she also needs to drive a tractor and shoot a gun while we are thereJ.  It will be fun J.

 

Anyway, I hope that everyone has a great Christmas!
