California, we’re rolling.

California!

October left this morning on her grand California adventure.  James and October rolled out of here at 4:08 this morning to catch her 6:00 flight.  Presently, she’s in Atlanta and will soon hop another flight to Los Angeles, where she’ll meet up with my dad.

This trip has been in the works for about 3 years.  October was so excited and chatty this morning she could hardly contain herself.  I’m actually not very nervous or anxious about her travels.  She’s got a good head on her shoulders, and I think the opportunity to do something like this without parents hovering around is fantastic.

    “Fantastic” is about right.

    When my lovely and talented daughter was around this age, she’d fly to upstate NY and spend a week with my folks. One summer, the road trip included a ride to the top of the WTC; we have a picture of her with her grandparents and cousin on the observation deck.

    Lucky girl. Trips like that are some of the best memories. Of course, when my kids flew out to my folks house they were always so excited and had so much fun….for about a week, maybe two. Then they always got homesick! Big babies.
