Home Safe and Sound

 
We made it home last night just in time to prepare our Thanksgiving feast.  Luckily I thought ahead and bought most everything before I left on this trip. Elizabeth was also kind enough to take the turkey out of the freezer for us last week.

This has been a whirl wind trip the last three weeks.  I caught up with Vince on October 30th in Costa Mesa, California for the end of his Storytime tour on the 31st.  He was on this tour from February to October, which means he was home off and on for approximately 4-5 weeks over the course of those 9 months.   

We then traveled to LA to work on the closing of Phantom of the Opera at the Pantages.  After running trailers back and forth from the Pantages to the drop yard for a couple days it was time to take a Phantom trailer across country to Wappingers Falls, NY.  After arriving in NY we ran a trailer to Harrisburg before returning to Wappingers Falls to pick up the Victoria’s Secret trailer.  So our total miles over this busy three weeks added up to 5000+ miles.   

We are hosting Thanksgiving at our place this year and hope Mom will join us, Elizabeth and Roman and possibly Elaine and John for a nice dinner.   But unfortunately she has taken to canceling more than attending things these days. After that it is time to decorate for Christmas and enjoy home time, especially for Vince who will head out again next week for three more weeks before arriving home for Christmas and a well deserved longer break.  Over the next weeks I plan to share some additional stories from this and past trips, however today I must get busy grocery shopping and cooking. Hope you all have a wonderful and tasty Thanksgiving dinner with family and friends.
