Cumberland is a beautiful city when viewed from the interstate with all of those church steeples, but a little rat maze of streets if you're actually in the city. So glad the backup didn't happen when we were on one of our trips through there.<BR/><BR/>No, we don't talk to or threaten our vehicles. We save it all for the GPS unit.Firefly Nightshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10775094871927451459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8561388898364757356.post-46909923681862275532008-08-16T14:03:00.000-04:002008-08-16T14:03:00.000-04:0016 mpg with 5 people and all the "payload"?

I am just impressed that you got all that stuff and 5 people in one vehicle. Maybe it's because I'm remembering the trips I've seen other folks make for one child to live in campus housing that required a rental vehicle in addition to their Suburban. <BR/><BR/>What a great story and adventure!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8561388898364757356.post-66579891941578470302008-08-16T10:41:00.000-04:002008-08-16T10:41:00.000-04:00Wow, looka t all that stuff, thank goodness for th...Wow, looka t all that stuff, thank goodness for the Burban'!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8561388898364757356.post-50622700159175977212008-08-16T00:54:00.000-04:002008-08-16T00:54:00.000-04:00I do not have your sense of adventure.

Of course, I never would have been driving in the first place.<BR/><BR/>Hope somebody plays with Thor soon. The older kids will be back again before you know it and Ryan won't be lonely anymore. ggMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03393380099409765165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8561388898364757356.post-49113968376482080222008-08-15T22:07:00.000-04:002008-08-15T22:07:00.000-04:00My youngest leaves this weekend.

Really, I have no sense if direction whatsoever.pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02651944290195111894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8561388898364757356.post-58895567410513539382008-08-15T21:56:00.000-04:002008-08-15T21:56:00.000-04:00What a great story!

Kellie looks great with her new bed coverings, too! Are the girls rooming together? <BR/><BR/>I bet your house is quiet without the older kids around. I don't even like it when my girls are gone during the day at school! Ryan has a big heart; I knew I liked that kid! (He looks like he's sprouted skyward some more!) I bet the car ride home was a tad more sedate without the girls, and without Santa, too!<BR/><BR/>And you are sooo not alone in talking to your cars. Although my brother in law takes it a step further and actually names his vehicles.Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11421838192857136356noreply@blogger.com
