BIG Weekend Plans!

Yep, we have 'em. We have big weekend plans to head west to Iowa, to visit some friends who also happen to be relatives. How did THAT happen? And, how did it happen that these friends who are also relatives happen to be of the liberal persuasion, while we are most decidedly NOT? Isn't that supposed to be like "three horns don't play with long-necks?" Sometimes it CAN be...but, most often, we spend time talking companionably, (even about some things we, on opposite sides of the spectrum, "shouldn't") drinking coffee and letting our kids run each other ragged.
BUT we have BIG snow on the ground. While the roads aren't too bad, there is enough here to keep us busy for a while. We have all kinds of friends calling to tell us we're "crazy, nuts and silly" to be heading out this afternoon.
But we probably will hook up the team, throw in a couple of extra buffalo robes, and then, Nanook and I will head west for adventure!
