Okay, we aren't leaving on a jet plane. We are leaving in our Town&Country minivan on Saturday for three weeks. Our first official stop will be Albuquerque. My boss' daughter lives there. We are great friends. As it turns out, her Mom will be there too. Very cool stuff.
A little segue to explain this. I have worked for my boss for 33 years. I have a great relationship with him and with his family, obviously. For example, my DDs were in his DD's wedding in 1999. I am sure that there were people that thought that was WEIRD. It was great fun. I made their dresses for the wedding and they were lovely things, even if I do say so myself.
Anyway, we are looking forward to visiting with her and her DH and two lovely children. Her kids are going to be 3 and 2 in August . . . which reminds me that we should bring their birthday presents with us!
We have a couple of "official stops" including Grand Canyon, then Utah, Las Vegas (one night only . . . just passing through), Yosemite, Crescent City, CA, Yellowstone and then on home. We are camping at all those places (except Vegas). My DH and I did this trip the first year we were married (26 years ago) and have been talking about doing it again when the kids were old enough. We decided that we had to do it this year. Sarah starts her nursing clinicals in August and she has school almost the entire summer next year. After that, she will, hopefully, be working full time and wouldn't be able to join us. Hence, a three week vacation for this year!
Anyway, I will be gone for three weeks starting Saturday, July 22 and won't be back (probably) until August 12. If I have time and access, I will post some stuff here. Be safe.
