We’re on our way to a long weekend in Virginia with our friends, Dan and Alex. On the drive through southeastern Ohio, fog is just lifting out of the low places. It’s really rather beautiful. A good start to a long drive.
This post has gone up a bit after I wrote it because I accidentally interrupted the download of my blogging software. While I don’t consider myself to be overly addicted to technology, I find it funny that in the last five years, preparing for travel has gotten much more complicated because of the technology that I do use. In addition to making sure I don’t forget my underwear or my toothbrush or my umbrella, I now have to make sure I sync’d my devices, packed my cables and chargers, and brought along my headphones. If I had had time, I would have put together an iPod playlist for the drive. Oh for the days when Mom packed my luggage for me.



Young Matthew – thank you for capturing these photos and your written commentary! Continue to enjoy these beautiful weekend, we will miss you @ the Jazz Fest this Sunday or hurry home…oxoxoxo
