one more week to get it together!

well, one more week, the living room looks like a luggage warehouse! stacks of clothing here there and everywhere. it's not so much what do we need to take but what do we not need to take! we're guessing warm (hot) weather until we leave boston then maybe some cooler days? probably will backfire and will be hot everywhere we go. we'll get it worked out and in the car and everything will be ok.
right now the plan is, pack the car sunday and leave early monday morning. we will head out
I-I0 heading to phoenix then on to tucson. hopefully we will get that far for our first night of sleeping in strange beds. from tucson it will be on to alamagordo, nm. we hope to get there early enough to see the sand dunes in the late afternoon. we hope to go to the space museum the next morning. next day will be a short day heading to carlsbad to the cave. we will also see the bat flight in the evening.
i'm going to stop here, seems like a good place to stop. we will try to update this at least every two days. right now we are still busy tying up loose ends like planning refills on meds, making sure we know when to order caroles insulin pump supplies so it gets delivered to proper address.
this is the trip of our lifetime and we are truly looking forward to it. yes, mom is going along and will make many stops along the way. we will mark on a map where we leave her. this is what she wanted. this is what we will do to honor her.
right now, i'm going to head to bed, it's late and tomorrow is another busy day. stay posted!

wonderful, we went to the space museum around 8/9 am (can't remember exactly) and they let us in even tho they weren't open til later. Mom will love the lake house.
we're trying to get in before you get here and before we leave to Ca.
