Driving Back

While I'm giving thanks, I need to mention that we arrived back in VA safely- with only one tire blow out, a few circles though Cincinnati, and a good 14 hours on the road. The kids traveled well, we listened to all of Oliver Twist, and enjoyed our two meal stops and lots of snacks along the way. Even though some were disappointed that we didn't stay at a hotel last night, The Lawyer and I were much happier to sleep in our own bed and keep the van parked in the driveway this morning.
