Raincharm’s Weblog

The drive to Vancouver & back is getting to be a normal thing.
The questions now are what questions are we going to be asked at the crossing.
Today, Ashlan got asked about her trip down on our way up.
And I got asked about the county of my birth on the way down. I answered the city question correctly, but I am glad he supplied the county name. I am not sure I could have come up with Kent County. (I was only 4 when we moved to Washtenaw County.)

The trip was fairly uneventful, thankfully.
On the way up it was dry, with a 5 minute wait at the I-5 Peace Arch crossing.
On the way down it was raining, with a 5 minute wait at the Truck crossing.

I did miss seeing 88888 on the odometer, due to an unusually dense occurence of great blue herons, that were occupying my recreational moments of eye use while driving.
I also missed 88988 and 89000, but this was due to the increasing rain, reasonably heavy traffic, and need to really pay attention to the road.

I have not really been following football this year, but my choices for today’s games both lost. Jets, because one of Carl’s kids is named Jet. And the Vikings because I like Brett.
