We're on the road again...for a little Get Away! I've been journaling since we left but today (March 2) is the first day that I've had a good internet signal, so I'll be playing a bit of catch up. So the dates I'm able to get online and post may be different than the date of my journal entry but that's the way it goes sometimes.
Friday, Feb. 24….

| What a day for a Get Away! |
Our weather recently has been such that the snow in our yard is
gone…temps have been solidly in the 40s, sometimes heading up in the 50s….sun
has been breaking through the cloud cover more and more. However, this morning we woke to 4 or 5
inches of wet sloppy snow and although we’ve been planning this trip for a
while now, today seems like a perfect day to get away. Heading out to Arizona to do some more
exploring and star gazing; then it’s onto New Mexico and then Texas to do the
same.

Before we left, Kim received a phone call from Mike, who urged us to have fun but "be careful
because I want you guys to come back home okay….and, Kim, is it okay if I call
you? Like maybe once a week or so, just
to check in, see how it’s going and tell Karen…hey, tell Karen that I love you
guys, God Bless and all that shit." J
A
bit unorthodox perhaps but somehow it was the perfect send off from our buddy
Mike.

Headed out
about noon on Friday, Feb. 24….first stop is Marshall, MI, to spend the night
with Brett and Ann.
Fast forward to Monday, Feb.
27…

| The TN and KY WonderKids |
Although we left Charlevoix on Friday, it only now feels like we’re
officially on our trip. After leaving
Brett and Ann’s Saturday morning, we drove to Kentucky where we spent the weekend
soaking up time with family….hung out at Marshal and Callie’s for a bit
Saturday afternoon/evening with the Tennessee Bakkers…had a slumber party with
the Tennessee WonderKids on Saturday night at the Shelbyville Ramada Inn…Sunday
went back to Waddy to hang out some more at Marshal and Callie’s…celebrated the
twinsies #2 birthday with friends and family…and finished off our Kentucky time
with another slumber party Sunday night, this time with Kim’s sister Vickie and
her husband Dan. After a hearty breakfast at the hotel, we parted ways and now we’re
off on another great adventure!!
