We are on our way!

Day 1 - After taking Sissel to the airport in Toledo, and shedding a few tears, we return home to load our luggage and then hop on the turnpike.  Mom drives for about 6 hours, while I read and sleep.  We stop in the town of Mill Hall for our first night - such excitement already because it is only the 2nd time I've stayed in a hotel.  I claimed my bed and settled in for the night.
