Off to see the . . . .

We are off to see Lady Jane and her brother, Williamm, for Thanksgiving.  A drive to Madison.  We know we will be entering the cold country but we thought it better than they coming to see us with two youngsters in tow.  So as bad as drive in late fall can be it is infinitely better than four on a flight from Madison and back though I am sure they wanted to get away from the city.

We have less equipment to move, and a very fine people mover in the Lincoln MKX to ride up there.  It is a magic wonder with all kinds of bells and whistles.  We just learned about one new one, the windshield wipers come on automatically if moist hits the windshield.  Neat, huh.   It has new tires and has maybe three thousand miles on it, so it is a sort of break in trip for the car.

We will do a short stay, have Thanksgiving dinner and depart Sunday for home.  It will be a short stay and with any luck be snow free.  If it snows it will be a slow trip back home, if not it will be fairly normal charge back to Texas.

Geaux Tigers!
