Good evenin' everyone!

We have some pretty bad brush fires in the area and the smoke was pretty thick outside earlier. It's cleared up a bit now, thank goodness.

My mom and I drove across the state today. Went all the way to Fort Myers through Naples. Checked out some houses, bought a lottery ticket. All in all, pretty boring, but we both had a travel itch that needed scratching.

Got to try out the Rav4's cruise control feature though. That was a nice thing to have. Unfortunately, my rear end's numb from the long car ride.

Note to self: Bring pillow to sit on the next time I'm taking a LONG drive.

Those beaded seat mats are exquisite, and completely eliminate numb-butt!

I bought one about 5 years ago when I got a sales job that required a lot of driving...and I never looked back.

Glad to hear that the brush fires are not a concern any longer...and good luck on the lotto!

We're looking at the Naples area as a possibility for Clare when it comes time for college. Ave Maria University is building a new campus, and a new town to go with it near Immokalee.

Hope you and your mom had a pleasant trip despite the smoke and but numbness. Didja find a house to buy with the winnin's from the lottery ticket? :-)
