We're leaving in the morning!

The car is packed, everyone has traveling clothes laid out, and there are sandwich fixings in the fridge with empty coolers on the counter. No one is looking forward to driving for another long day. The other family with whom Mom, Rosemary, and I might have had a ride home from the Bright Lights conference are not able to drive us, so the rest of our family has to wait around Cedar Rapids during the conference. Papa did some checking online tonight and found an art museum and some other attractions around that area, though, so it won't be as if they're just bored out of their minds. The motel has a swimming pool, too, and I'm sure they'll spend several hours there. :)
