Top Management just called. The brood has passed the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range and the Greenhorn Mountains and went over the Raton Pass and are now in New Mexico. Yay! They’ll be in Santa Fe tonight.
The moving truck with just about all our worldly possessions is arriving tomorrow morn. I'll spend an extremely pleasant and relaxing day thusly, then go to work on Tuesday, and Wednesday morning I'll be flying to Phoenix, where I'll be greeted by the indefatigable and redoubtable Top Management and her lovely, lovely Mess o' Kids.
It’s somewhere around 350 miles from Phoenix to the San Diego area, so we might try to do it in one day, but it’d be nice to arrive in the daylight, so maybe we’ll make it two really easy days instead.
As though there’s any such thing as “an easy day” when you’ve got five kids.
Fortunately, there are wonderful days. Or so I've been told. I’m hoping to find out myself in just about 65 more hours. Not really sure what we’re going to do; I figure we’ll stop in Yuma or somewhere around there and I’m sure there’s some Native American museums or something. And if there isn’t anything to do? Who cares? There’ll be plenty of beds for kids to jump on. And that’s more’n good enough.
How lovely. It sounds like an amazing adventure for your family.
