So we are on the home stretch... Only 9 more sleeps until we leave. It has become my job (Lindsay) to learn how to use this thing as James is out working on a frozen lake. I was the lucky one and got to stay in town and work out all the the remaining things for the trip.

The previous night we enjoyed some Pizza Hut Express an hour before we pulled into the Travelodge. If you think Pizza Hut is bad, find a Pizza Hut Express and wolf down a medium pizza with a friend.
