Travel Day

Today we made our way from Arlington to the lake by way of Amherst so I could visit with to my former co-workers.   It was good to see the the old gang again.  But a little painful too,  giving up that job and our life in the valley was so hard.  

I try not to think about it too much; when I do I get really annoyed at Bryan and his stupid need to take a the fabulous opportunity his employer offered him.  I should have picked someone willing to settle.  Anyway, it never gets very far - my getting annoyed with Bryan - because he always reminds me that I was the one who made him apply for the job.  So basically it is my own fault that we had to leave.

After we went to Amherst, I dragged the kids around downtown Northampton for a little while.  I saw these really neat magnetic dress up dolls on a website a few months ago and I've been wanting to get them for Megan.  With all the traveling we will be doing, I though they would be a great activity for her.  I don't know where the cool toy stores are in California, but I figured that the toy store in Noho would have them.  Alas, they did stock them, but were sold out.  

We finally made it to the lake at 6:30.  Thankfully we will stay here for a couple weeks.  I'm a little worn out with travel.
