Safely home

We arrived home shortly after 7 p.m. local time.  It was a long drive (almost 9 hours), but the traffic wasn't too bad thanks to Miss D. keeping an eye on her smartphone magic elf box.  It warned us of two blockages on the Interstate, and we were able to divert around them with the aid of its maps and GPS navigation system.  I can remember hours stuck in motionless traffic before such technological tricks came along . . .

We're going to get an early night, then unpack and sort out stuff tomorrow.  The cat's overjoyed to have us home again, and is alternating between rubbing herself on us and purring, and attacking us vigorously (we're the Other Cats as far as she's concerned, you see, so she's had two weeks without playmates and wants to make up for lost time).

I'll put up more blog posts tomorrow.  Until then, sleep well, y'all.
