Today was a road trip day for me to attend a Wendlandt cousin’s daughter’s shower in Glencoe, Minnesota, which is about 80 miles to the northeast. I so depend on Map Quest to find my way right to the front door of addresses I have never been to before. I had a great time visiting with cousins and aunts I don’t see very often. Good visiting, good food, lots of sunshine, but I came home totally weary from herding my car in the high winds. I drive a tanker of a Lincoln Town Car and could feel the resistance and the tugging. I can’t imagine driving a lightweight, small model car. Watching the 18 wheelers from behind, most had quite a time as well.
It is “rest up” time, as tomorrow we are heading to Eden Prairie in the metro for a postponed Easter. The original planned day was taken over by the flu with Megan and may have played a bit with Nicholas. Dennis commented it has been difficult to stay out of the goodies in the Easter baskets he has prepared for the kids. Gotta love a strong man.
