to grandmother's house...

So, I'm leaving today for the Boot to spend Christmas with the extended family. Today I'm gearing up and shoving everything in the SUV for the eight hour drive. Along the way there's a whole lot of road, pine trees, grassy median, horizon, and not a whole lot of anything else. Family Fun (a great game of guess who, where we each take turns describing the characteristics of someone-fictional or non-and try to guess who it is!!!) and podcasts usually get me through the drive. We'll be back before the new year, so until then, Merry Christmas!
