They grow up fast

Just moved Ellie into her house at KU. Only one minor incident:  her box spring matress flew off the top of the van only eight miles into the journey from Iowa City.  

For the record, I was not the one who strapped it down. 

Thankfully, no one was behind us. After recovery efforts, it was determined the box spring was unsalvageable. 

As luck would have it, a mattress store in Lawrence was having a going-out-of-business sale.  We scored a new box spring without missing a beat. 

Maggie made it back to IC from camp.  Sidetrack is in MN with Big Dawg for a couple of days. I should arrive back by 11:00 pm if I don't stop between here and there?

And so it goes. . .
