On the road again...

This time tomorrow, our car is going to look like this...
(pretty much exactly like this, including my frizzy head of hair.)

Only imagine the way-back filled to the top with luggage 
and every other spare inch of space crammed with snacks and other activities to keep everyone occupied.
Oh boy.. do I have a ton of packing to do today!
Yikes!

As is the norm for our family, we aren't going to take a direct route to our destination. 
Noooooo...
The siren call of the original Ben and Jerry's complete with a factory tour and samples 
is causing us to veer off of I-95 to
take winding Vermont roads in search of Cherry Garcia and Toffee Heath Bar Crunch.



As far as blogging goes... who knows what I'll be able to do.  
I may find myself too busy to blog, 
or I might have so many things to say and share that I'll just have to blog.
Who knows?

What I do know is that by the end of my vacation in Maine, 
I'll have 2,222 pictures to sort through.
(at least that many!)
