We're home

This trip took the normal time. We didn't have traffic but we were with many cars on the road. Everyone went the speed limit and it was fine. We drove through some showers.

On the return trip it was just me, Patrick and Alex. Ms. Doris (Great Grandma) left with Ms. Debbie (Granny) earlier in the day. Patrick and I didn't decide until later on that we would return home. Knowing we wouldn't be able to wash dishes, take showers or flush the toilet until possibly tomorrow was better than having 2 adults, a baby, 2 cats, and a dog and our luggage in one small hotel room. We have electricity so we can microwave the meals we bought in Alabama. We stocked up on food and water before we came home so we don't have to go out and wait in lines like most everyone else.

The trip was about 6 hours. We left around 12pm and got home around 6pm on Thursday. We had to stop for gas and to feed Alex. Alex slept the first 3 hours of the trip so we made good time then. After he was up he needed to eat twice. The second feeding was done on the side of some neighborhood off I-12.

So, we're home safe and sound. The pets are happy, the baby seems happy and the parents are happy.

DirectTV was not working so Patrick set up the bunny ears. One must NOT miss the first regular season game of football.
