Whew! What a lot of getting ready there is...living in the present and in the future is hard work. We are counting down lots of things right now; days Mhairi has at elementary school, days Ceilidh has at middle school, sleeps, days left where we live in something larger than a 15 by 6 foot box...
Our journey, which begins on Saturday (aptly, the first day of summer) takes us across the northern U.S., which will likely be faster and cheaper than across Canada. We will get to Ottawa around June 29, and enjoy Canada Day in our capital. Between June 21 and 29 is about 3000 km of road...Our first night will be in Ellensburg, Washington, but we don't have any other campsites booked for our journey there (which of course makes me entirely uncomfortable, and Dennis quite happy).
After Ottawa, we head back into the States, for a night outside NYC at a campsite, and then into the Big Apple itself for four nights (in a real hotel!) We will be in NYC for July 4, which should be quite exciting!
So, until our next blog, I go back to packing and cleaning...
