dear god....

...dave leaves in just about a week to start the cross-country journey with the motorcycle. (he has to basically get from here to buffalo in 6 days. whew.)

i fly out in precisely two weeks to meet him and then we start the meandering excursion across the whole U S of A. See family, small towns, mountains, nashville, who knows...cause the whole point is that it's not really planned.....

I really hate to give him credit where credit is due, but he did say, oh, like back in January that this was all going to sneak up on us a whole lot faster than we think, and um, well, he was, um, *cough*, well... he was right.
