Safe, on-time travels, Tom.
I don't really have a security blanket... unless you count Mr. Pointy.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The flight is on time, and they're just starting boarding. Had enough time to get breakfast after I got past security.

Good luck on getting out, Tom!
I'm waiting on my neighbors to go to the market. Why I needed to wake at 6 is beyond me. Has been for months.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Excellent timing, Tom!

Now tagless for your comfort.
Stay safe, East Coasters!

I got up at 7 to go to the farmer's market. Hemmed and hawed and decided I didn't really need to go...so I had an hour long nap on the couch.
Now I am eating French toast that I made myself w. maple syrup and blueberries. And coffee. Mmmm.

Liese, my dad has an Odyssey and likes it a lot. The built-in GPS is kind of crappy, but I think that's an optional feature (and it's entirely likely they've improved it in the 6 years since he bought that car).
So far no hurricane here. Not even rain. Tying to decide if I should get the kids outside while there's still time, or if I should be battening down the hatches.

Jessica, get outside now while you can. You'll have LOTs of time to be cooped up inside with two energetic children and possibly no power later. Run them hard now!

Trust my rage
I know the Sienna isn't still in the running but we rented one three years ago to drive my New Mexico, through Utah, and back through Arizona. It was so amazing and really went a long way toward convincing me that if I ever buy a minivan, that will be it. We were able to set up exactly the arrangement we needed (with three adults, a toddler, and infant. And a swing and double jogging stroller and cooler and bags.)
