Roadtrip!
As I write this I am bouncing along on the back seat of the van, cruising down the interstate with Ivan chattering to his stuffed bear next to me. Paul is at the wheel be-boppin’ to tunes and Silas is reading books to Franklin the turtle, while his Mexican Free-Tailed Bat enjoys the scenery from his roost on the window blind. Similar to last summer’s big trip we’re headed east again. And as the miles tick by each of us is daydreaming of our own easternly to-do’s: waking up in a tent next to a lush wooded Adirondack lake, roasting marshmallows and running wild with cousins, getting cuddles and smooches and big squeezies from grandparents, aunts and uncles, and sucking in that wonderfully humid air on shaded sidewalk runs through the city of Pittsburgh…just to name a few. We’ll be away from home for an entire month! (well the kids and I that is. Paul will fly back to Tucson for the mid portion of the trip to work). Our planned route will take us first to Colorado to spend a couple days in Rocky Mountain National Park, then straight east on interstate 80 to Pennsylvania. We’ll spend a day or so in Pittsburgh and then head north, stopping at Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania. Then further north to Marathon, New York. Then even FURTHER north to Lake Eaton in the Adirondacks!
