On the road again
I am off to Minnesota for a few days. I spent over ten years of my life living there, and the people I work for in my non-farming life are there as well. I am going on business to take care of a few work things and to attend our firm's annual Christmas party.
Maryellen has decided that instead of staying in a creaky, drafty farmhouse with only Wavo and the mice to keep her company, that she will go visit her Mom and Dad and sister and brother-in-law and nephew and niece and friends for a few days in Boston.
This weekend, after I get back from Minnesota, we will be at the annual Christmas party Maryellen's family throws in Boston. After that all bets are off -- Christmas week will probably be some combination of any and all of the following -- Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut, New York, and maybe even Rhode Island.
We honestly aren't sure at this point when we might be back up here. It could be next Monday for a day or two, or it could easily be the Monday after that. More big adventures for Waverly!
We will, however, try to make some remote posts from the road.
Happy Holidays everyone!
P.S. Maryellen suggested I note that unlike our usual practice, we may actually lock the house while we are gone. So if anyone has any ideas about coming up here and stealing all the old cow manure in the barn, you can forget about it.
