Prepare for launch...
If everything goes OK, here's the current plan:
Tues., Oct. 20: Drive to Shasta or other more northerly point
Wed., Oct. 21: Drive to Portland, crash with the lovely Crowmama
Thu., Oct. 22: Drive to Seattle
Fri., Oct. 23: Meet up with friends (zoo? childrens' museum? other idea?) (I'm looking at you, Qarin and Megan and Heidi and Colleen and Hollie!); pick up my sister at SEA/TAC at 7:30 pm
Sat., Oct. 24: Hang in Seattle a bit (breakfast with my sister- and brother-in-law?), drive to Spokane
Sun., Oct. 25: Visit with Lorraine & Paul, stay in Spokane one more night
Mon., Oct. 26: Start heading back to Chicago; maybe a side-trip to visit Uncanny in Butte?
Tue., Oct. 27: Drive
Wed., Oct. 28: Drive
Thu., Oct. 29: Drive
Fri., Oct. 30: Arrive Twin Cities area?
Sat., Oct. 31: HOME!!!
Sun., Nov. 1: My sister flies back to NY from Chicago
I'd love to connect with folks in Oregon and Washington... if you're reading this, it's a safe bet that I'd like to hang out with you at least for a meal or maybe a stop at your favorite park (so I can let Linc and Wiley get their ya-yas out). Comment and we'll make it happen!
Also... if you have a bed (after Friday, two), don't mind a kid and a dog, and feel like letting us mooch for a night, we'd be more than happy to impose upon you. I would happily provide massage, braids, babysitting, dishwashing or some other service to help out while I'm around!
In other news... did you know that all Motel 6s allow pets? Yay!
