Road Trip III

We will be off on another adventure in the morning with a road trip to Billings.  From there we fly to Orlando on Friday morning and spend almost two weeks at Daytona Beach.  I'm not the best traveler in that I hate packing and I get a little anxious about the details when we're going somewhere new.  We've never been to Florida and M has never seen the Atlantic Ocean.

M was packed and ready on Sunday night.  I finally started yesterday, but after looking at the weather forecast I'm rethinking it.  I'm not sure it's going to be shorts weather much of the time.  Oh well, if it's over 50 I will be in my flip-flops.  And, my back brace is not making the trip!

We have plans to spend six days at the Daytona Speedway and want to spend a day at the space center.  Many people are incredulous that I will go to the track that many days.  I've heard that there is so much to see and do there, and I am totally into the whole NASCAR thing that I think it will be a blast.  I also always say that it is my husband's vacation and he's nice enough to take me along.  It is kind of cool that the Sprint Unlimited race (formerly the Bud Shootout) will be on my birthday and Dale Jr. will be making an appearance at the Fan Zone.  That's a good way to spend my birthday.

The past couple of days I have been working on last minute details--getting my nails done, paying bills, doing laundry.  I am also cleaning my house although I'm not sure why since R and our nephew will be here taking care of the cow chores and the dog so I'm pretty sure it won't be clean when I get back.  We're so lucky to have the boys to take care of things especially since M's brother and his wife are headed to Jamaica.  We're all trying to get our vacations in before the spring craziness begins (J and K just got home from Vegas).

Back to my chores............
