Another Day, Another 300 Miles

I didn't wake up until about 11 AM this morning, and thus everything I'd planned for today was behind schedule. It took me a while to get myself together. Lisa made us lunch since breakfast was a loss, and I moved the van around to the garage, where we removed the seats again. Lisa wants me to pick up several more bookcases from IKEA when I get a chance, and that means I can't have the seats in place. We plan to put the middle seat back in before we head for Seattle, but leave the rear seat out in order to have sufficient cargo space for the trip.

Before I left, I took a few pictures of Lisa's test sections of painting with the quart of paint we bought a few weeks ago.

Around 2 PM I finally got on my way. With stops in Reno, Colfax, Sacramento, Lathrop, and approaching San Jose (the last to pick up a small bit of groceries), it took me about eight hours to get home, and I think I've caught a cold, as I'm not feeling that great tonight. I hope it's mild, because with Westercon approaching, I have a lot of things that have to get done in the next three weeks before we head to Seattle.
