The eve of an adventure
Books have been selected. Gadgets have been unplugged. Alarm is set for hours before the sunrise. Tomorrow I fly over flooded highways en-route to a flooded hometown. To meet my best friend and continue to just shy of Canada. Where we will jump a train. Nineteen hours of reading, scrabble, food, and staring out windows as the country rolls by. Final destination: rainy Seattle to watch the historic Yankees take on the Mariners.
