Adventures abound

The Mrs. has been on another adventure with but a few hours sleep from the last one. Tuesday morning she headed for Maine to spend the week with our friend Amy after a stop for lunch with the Bro, SIL and Niece #2 in Mass. She will fill in with a few posts and photos from her trip. As of now it looks like I'll be taking an all expense paid 2 day vac to Miami next week.
