Home Again

4950 air miles.
1398 driving miles.
1 rental car.
7 colleges.
6 hotel rooms.
3 Broadway shows.
Many new friends.

Since I was driving (17 year olds are not authorized to drive a rental car, much to their annoyance), I don't have a lot of pictures.  Also I didn't want to irritate Ernest more than necessary. I do have a few cell phone snaps which I will post this week.

It was a great trip.

I received mild cat snubbing from Homer but I'm sure to win back his affection with a dollop of cream cheese.

Now to tackle that foot high pile of junk mail that someone left for me.

Whew! That's a LOT of miles. You deserve a rest!

I'm exhausted just reading the list!

Homer might deserve 2 dollops of cream cheese, or at least a little bacon. (Cleopatra suggested it.)

Wow, so tell us all about the colleges you visited! I loved it when we went on our son's trip to explore colleges. I wanted to attend all of them!

Susan said...

That sounds like a grand adventure.

So you are college searching for Fall 2014? Then you know where I'm at, yes you do .. although mine is leaving in a few weeks. Leaving being a very relative term since he is attending the local university. But it's still a chapter closing on me that I'd rather keep open for a few more years.
