Driving off the TripTik

gerisullivanWhen I started this trip, I knew I was coming as far west as Chicago -- I had a box of carnival glass to deliver to Jack WINOLJ, and his place is a mere 180 miles west of my dad's in Battle Creek. No big deal, right? Right.
It takes adding another 400 miles to that 180 that to pretty much double the size of the drive. But there's simply too much that I want and need to do in Minneapolis at this time to turn around and head back east from Jack's in the morning, as I planned to do when entering destination addresses on AAA website when creating a TripTik for the trip. So I'll spend Monday driving off the TripTik. Not that I've paid any attention to it since leaving my sister's in Lansing. I know these roads, the routes, the exits. Lansing, Battle Creek, Chicago, Minneapolis. The only difference is that I'll still have 1400 miles to drive after I arrive in Minneapolis Monday night
I expect to be in town until, um, sometime around the end of the week. Don't really know yet -- it depends on how three client projects-in-process go, and how much visiting I can cram in during whatever free time the work load leaves me. I'll be staying with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Tangerine Drops; yum. And I'm thinking it's time to make Mary's Sugar Cookies again. They're the best.
