I am off to Reno at an ungodly hour this morning. If you see me bleary-eyed and blathering at the airport don't attempt to hold an intelligent conversation with me - it would be an exercise in futility.

Road trip! ;-)
I have been waiting for today for over two months. Today is an important day! Today I am off to Fertile, Minnesota! Today's trip to Fertile will be my first. Even though it is a mere hour and a half away, I have never ventured to the town before. But that is not unusual for [...]
