Jun 12/13 - packed and gone

June 12 was our day to complete prep and packing followed by June 13, a day of driving.  We're now in Hemmingford.  Who'd a thunk that we'd need to bring the trailer to travel to Europe ?!?

Yes we brought the trailer.  We brought one of the kennels for Jennie, the new dog and a huge bag with two blowup beds and two sleeping bags for the wall to wall sleeping arrangements that will no doubt be needed for the upcoming family reunion.  If all works out, I'll arrive on the cusp of the aforementioned reunion, newly back from Italy.

That's all more than a month away, however, and in the meantime we have lots of ground to cover !  We fly to Venice tomorrow (Friday) night and from there we head to Sofia, our first-ever visit to Eastern Europe. 

Cassie and Jennie ran in the backyard until Jennie was tired.  Cassie was playing fetch, naturally.  Jennie, the one-year-old, was just as fast but was chasing Cassie, not the ball.  Later on Jennie nipped Cassie and she didn't like that; today is another day; eventually they'll work things out.

We had our monthly RUSA Board conference call that went 2.5 hours.  Jim and Sheryl had gone to bed by the time I was finished.  Sandy was still up - mostly because I was occupying the bedroom !

Onward !
