Waiting
I arrived in California this past Saturday and I've been having a much needed stint of relaxation before the big trip to Beijing on the 13th. Having a dog, however, has complicated the logistics of a simple visit quite a bit. Since Kevin is going to be moving to Pennsylvania on the 18th and I'm going to be gone for 2 months, we needed to figure out what to do with Andy for an extended length of time. Bringing him out to California seemed to be the most logical choice since Kevin's mother did a great job taking care of the Kellie (the other granddog) when Chris and Leslie went to Hawaii for several weeks. The process of physically getting him out here, however, has been a problem. After considering the cost of flying him out (~$400 each way = absolute madness) Kevin bit the bullet and decided to drive him out. He left around 1 am Monday morning and has been making great time, but I can't wait for him to finally get here. I'm not sure how I feel about him driving cross country with no one to share the driving with. Poor thing.
