A Trip of a Thousand Plus Miles...

As may be deduced from the last post, we spent the Thanksgiving holiday with Jaclyn at PCC so we could be in attendance at her Nurse Lamp Lighting ceremony. I drove the 21 hours - 1260 miles - down by myself. I arrived Sunday. I spent Monday at the Penscacola Naval Air Musuem, then checked in to our condo on the beach, and visited with the Beauchemins who were down with the VT Grandparents visiting PCC as well. Tammy and Lizzy traveled by air and joined us on Tuesday.

Lizzy attended Campus Days and visited several classes on Wednesday as well as spent the night with Jaclyn on campus. Tammy and I visited the PCC planetarium and the radio station WPCS. We all attended the Thursday Thanksgiving Day praise service, watched the Turkey Bowl,and then had Thanksgiving dinner on campus.

Friday was a lazy day with Grandpa and I surf fishing. After about two hours, a storm front came through and put an end to that. My cousin Tim and most of his family were up from Gainesville for a wedding and stopped by that evening for a visit.

Saturday we attended Jaclyn's ceremony and the Fine Arts play Our Town. We packed the vehicle that night for the long drive home the next morning which will be the subject of the next blog.

I'm assuming the trip home was an adventure if you are devoting a full post till the trip or is this an attempt to get your readers to return?

Not really an adventure as much as I passed the time and miles away in what I thought was a rather odd way -- only to find out when I returned home that it wasn't really all that odd.
