It was cold and overcast all day with temps only reaching the mid 30's--a good day to just hang out around the house.  Suppose to get a little snow overnight.  This weather sure makes us anxious to leave next week.

John took care of a couple household chores today.  He cleaned the inside of the Honda and all the ceiling fans in the house.  After such a dry summer, the fans were pretty dusty.  I did a couple of small loads of laundry and paid a few bills so I won't have to think about the finances until after we get settled down south.   I also spent some time on the computer booking hotel rooms for the trip--we hope to make St. Joseph, MO the first night, and Wichita Falls the second. We found a few more items to pack, but right now we are in good shape to leave.  There are always a few little last minute things to take care of like turning off the internet, phone, and TV.  

This evening we just relaxed watching some TV and reading.  Right now we are just marking time until next Wednesday when we hit the road.
