Today is the day, the reason that we have made this journey to the Fatherland, or at least the land of my father and mother. Today is the day that we dump our little bundle of joy off at college, along with a large bundle of our life's savings. We will be leaving lovely lively La Crosse in just a few minutes bound for the big city, or rather cities, of St. Paul and Minneapolis. For those who aren't up on midwest geography these cities are in the state of East Dakota. Today Beth will finally meet her new roommate face to face. She has been "chatting" with her on Facebook for quite sometime. Tomorrow brings her first freshman class, with the real classes starting Thursday. It is difficult to know what the range of emotions will be as we drive away this evening.
As for the weather, all is well. It will be beautiful in Washington and North Idaho, as well as in East Dakota (Minnesota if you haven't figurede it out yet). Sunny skies will be stretched over both areas, and today's high will be in the vicinity of 80 degrees. For Spokane the week ahead still looks very nice. Sunny days and highs in the 80s are on tap through the week.
For the next day or two I will post when a wi-fi network is available. Who knows when and where that will be?
