ismoWe had a pretty good day. I ran around in the morning, packing up my stuff, making sandwiches for my mother (which I'm pretty sure she won't eat, but just in case), putting some chips and pretzels in baggies for her, making sure my plants were watered. Then I went and got my hair cut, and had a fun chat with my stylist. She had gone to London to visit a friend, and showed me some of her pictures of the city. She loves graffiti, and had a lot of photos of some amazing street art, including a Banksy picture.
It was snowing intermittently, which caused me a certain amount of dread, but it never amounted to very much. We didn't get on the road until 3 . . . yet somehow arrived in less than two hours. Hmm. The traffic was light, for the most part. But I may have been exceeding the speed limit just a tiny bit. I was hoping we'd get there soon enough to spend a little time with my mother before she went to dinner, but she was already seated in the dining room. We went in and said hi, but didn't stay. She said it was her bath night so she was going to be busy after dinner. We met Deb and the Prussian halfway between our locations and had a nice dinner with them. Now we're back in the motel. There are two hotels in town and this time, we're in the good one. Last time we stayed in the one that's not so great and it was really irritating. This one isn't the Ritz, but it's reasonably comfortable. It's a big relief to be here and in good shape.
