I see that Serious Cat takes her guard duties very seriously.
TOL, I think am going to take your advice and my wife and I will fly out and rent an vehicle to complete our journey. This means special consideration for transporting firearms and have decided will not make this trip with firearms. My Better Half hates riding long distances and she and I admire those that will be traveling via vehicle. We are looking forward to this time with everyone. I’ll not bringing any show and tell except my Better Half this time and Grandchildren will hold down the fort at home.
