leavin' town

Long drives are in my future.

Starting tomorrow morning, we'll be piling into a car packed with too much stuff, making a trek from D.C. to Missouri for the holidays. It's not going to be quite that simple, though. The itinerary includes stops in Indianapolis, Chicago and Cleveland, and while we're in Missouri we'll be hopping back and forth between Joplin and Springfield a few times.

I'm not sure how much relaxing there will be. Hopefully some, but it might be the sort of vacation leaving us needing a vacation when we return.
