Kyle, e and I left home Friday a little before 6 PM and had a fairly smooth drive to Palos Verdes, where K's mom lives. Traffic slowed to a crawl on I-5 twice due to accidents. We saw one car up on its side on the shoulder. Other than that, we made good time, stopping just once for fuel. e stayed awake till nearly 10. I didn't count how many times I sang "Hush, Little Baby" and other songs like "Down by the Bay." At one point K chimed in with a verse about a parrot eating a carrot, and believe it or not that is exactly what I was about to say! We arrived about 12:40, carried in our luggage and went to bed, though e decided to stay up for nearly an hour her dad reported the next morning.
Saturday afternoon e's aunt and cousins came up, and we enjoyed seeing the three little girls together.
We left PV at 4:00 this morning, stopping a couple of times. Soon after crossing into Arizona we stopped again, about 8:30, and e woke up. She was a great traveler.
Randy cut the back of his right hand last night and ended up calling Dena and Alan to take him to the ER at Kaiser, but it was a fairly minor cut. The doctor glued the edges of the wound together and suggested Randy not make a fist for a few days. When I spoke to him a few minutes ago, he had taped a plastic glove over his hand and was about to clean the litter box. He'll be fine.
