Off to Michigan

As usual, we're running late and low on funds; but the Michigan renfair starts next weekend, and we have to be there. We leave tomorrow evening. I just hope we can make it there by Friday.
I'm feeling a bit Frodo-ish about being on the road this year. You know how he changes Bilbo's road song to say "weary" feet instead of "eager" feet? I've got weary feet. Living on the road no longer about adventure for me.
Part of this is because we won't have the camper with us this time, and because we still don't know where we're staying once we get there. The largest part, I think, is that this isn't a "there and back again" adventure. We're always in between places. Despite all my efforts to change things, we've been living out of boxes and bags for almost 9 years now. I'm ready to go home.
As soon as I get one, I'm going there like a shot.
Perhaps I'll feel better once we get to Michigan. It will be nice to see friends again and to have some kiddo free time. If we do well enough, we may even buy a new camper with running water, a refrigerator, a stove that works, and maybe even a separate bed for Larry and me. I think that would be home-like enough to make me happy.
I don't know, I think I'm just gloomy cause I'm still getting over a cold. That's probably it.
Anyway, not sure about internet access, but it should be easier this year with the laptop. I'll try to make a post or two here, and I'll definitely be checking my email about once or twice a week. Otherwise, I'll see you guys in October. :)
