A road trip with the girls.....

Tomorrow I'm taking off with some friends for our
annual summer road trip.
(Is is considered a road trip when you go to the same place every year?)


My friend Sheila's parents have a cabin (sort of like this one)
near Yellowstone National Park.

We'll probably see some of these.

We'll take in a musical, go on a few hikes, play games, read novels, do some hand-crafts,
drive through the park, and be quite lazy.
(No house work!)

That is... if we can get all our things packed in the car.

One year we packed our luggage on top of the car.
It was a good idea until we discovered that Sandi's suitcase must have blown off
somewhere in the vast Southern Idaho wilderness.....

Another year we had the trunk of the car so loaded that we couldn't get it closed. We had to unpack everything and take a bigger car!

This year we decided not to pack so much food.
(Karen is going to put her frozen lunch meat in her suitcase with her underwear!)
Hopefully, everything will fit.

I'll be back soon!

I'm sad for Sandi and her lost suitcase! My mouth flew open when I read that part! Sounds like a fun vacation!
