A lot has happened since my last posting. Ellen and I returned from Los Altos, CA where we spent the holidays. We really enjoyed out time spent with Jen, Dan, Elise, Thomas and Julia. Once back home, we began working on plans for our California or Bust road trip. We have been plotting our route, researching points of interest, talking with a representative from AAA who was most helpful, speaking with a former national park ranger who works at Dodds Camera, and organizing items to take on the trip.
We have our route completed with plans to take our time and visit as many cities and highlights as possible. This will extend our time in getting to Jen and Dan's, but we think this will be OK. Since we will be staying in an extended stay hotel in February, we may as well stay lengthen our trip out to CA in order to take in more sights. We hope to be able to stay at the home of one of Jen and Dan's neighbors during March. If this works out, it will be great for us since we will be staying just down the street from Jen and Dan's.
I have been working as well in getting a web camera working. The camera plus a thermometer will allow me to see the temperature inside our house while we are away. One of my concerns is a problem with the furnace. Now I will be able to see the temperature in our house and know that the furnace is working properly.
Lots of last minute items to take care of tomorrow as we hope to leave on Tuesday, January 20.
More later . . .
