Trips for Clarence Buckingham Fountain

Drop off Sammy with the in-laws. He's going to eat well. We should weigh him first to see the difference Landed in Chicago. No problem. Made it to the rental agency -- guess what? No vans in the lot. Waited around the lobby for about half an …

Friday, 8/1 - Well, after many months of planning, the day has finally arrived! I can't believe that we're actually driving across the US! It's something I've always wanted to do. Our drive will take us from Connecticut to California and back …
