We are all packed, except for a few last minute items. We plan on leaving for the Alabama Gulf Coast after church tomorrow. The route we chose contains very little time on Interstates. It is about 770 miles the way we are going. We could make it in two days if we wanted but Sunday night it is supposed to get down to 20 degrees, instead of "only" 26 degrees tonight. We might as well be a couple of hundred miles south of here Sunday night, where the low will only be somewhere between 25 & 30 degrees.
The weather was nice again today, although the low last night was colder than forecast. The forecast low was 34, but the actual low was 26. The warmer temps that past few days have sure helped out with our wood supply.
Lydia "helped" Kathy do a lot of the packing. She was outside with us a lot today. During one of our walks Kathy mentioned that we were going to really need to keep a close eye on Lydia this summer. I've said it before, but she just doesn't have any fear. She just wanders out into the woods and then turns around to see if we are following her. If we aren't close enough she will holler at us to get closer. I think she might continue into the woods even if we didn't follow.
Yesterday we got Skype set up on our laptops/phones so that we can "video message" with Lydia, and Kelsey & Andy, while we are gone. I'm not sure who is going to miss who the most. I know Lydia is going to miss us but I'm also sure that we are going to miss her.
May God bless you and yours.
