We didn't, however, get lost once, if you can imagine that. <BR/><BR/>I did forget "Marcia" my navigator in Billings and we had to go back and get "her". I'm pretty sure she's the reason we actually made it to our destination. Well, that and the fact that I didn't do much of the driving! <BR/><BR/>Anyway, we are here, safe and sound and enjoying a relaxing day.<BR/> <BR/>We plan to go out shopping later and I'll let you all know how THAT goes, presuming we ever make it back to my son's house. ;-)<BR/><BR/>Hugs and Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I am looking forward to checking in with all of you sometime this week.<BR/><BR/>Be safe and know you are loved.<BR/><BR/>Lauriedmmgmfmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09872482306885344135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24229767.post-45266064116595845742007-11-20T13:48:00.000-07:002007-11-20T13:48:00.000-07:00Dear Laurie,Safe travel.
