Time to Click My Ruby Red Slippers

Ahhhhhhhhhhh. Once again. There's no place like home. There's no place like home!

In the last month, we've spent more time in Kansas than in warm sunny Arizona. No offense to the wonderful hospitality of the Sunflower State, but I'm so relieved to be heading home today! I heard the 4 o'clock freight train, and now I'm listening to the 5:40 a.m. roll through. We'll leave this morning and drop into New Mexico tonight -- then on to Phoenix Monday morning. So time to slap on the road music and dream about all that 70 degree weather I've been missing!

There's No Place Like Home!

I thought I'd fire up a little road trip music because we're heading out today. Craig's mother should be leaving the hospital by noon, so we'll be taking off down the road in hopes of beating a winter storm that's supposed to arrive tonight. The storm is also hitting northern New Mexico, but hopefully we can get to Albuquerque on Tuesday so we have some sights to explore while we wait out the storm! We've booked a room in Tucumcari tonight. Sounds kind of exotic, but when viewed from the interstate -- not! Sorry Tucumcari. I could be wrong? Hopefully, we'll be back to much milder weather at home by sometime Wednesday!

There's no place like home! There's no place like home! I'm clicking my heels, but I forgot my ruby red slippers!
