The end of the road :-P [Travel day]

We left two weeks ago today to trek to Massachusetts for Christmas with the kids and grandkids, then back to Ohio for a mom-and-siblings celebration with Clare’s family. Today we drove home from Ohio (in the vehicle that was packed-and-repacked multiple times) to a meal ready to go in the oven from our friend Bobbie. This is a Tree House beer to go with the meal. We did manage to find space for a few four-packs of Tree House Brewing Company products to come home from Tewksbury, Massachusetts.

As suggested in a recent post, I’m giving up on the missing 8½ months from mid-April through the rest of 2023 and [try to] concentrate on posting recent photos. I will probably try to fill in with some photos I think are 365-worthy, but we’ll see how all this goes. (I can see that I will want to post at least one photo in each of the missing months, but again, we’ll see how all this goes!)

Nice end of the road capture! Your trip sounds like ours when dad was still in the Air Force - Christmas Eve in Georgia and Christmas Day in North Carolina, then back home to the base in South Carolina. Whew!

@marlboromaam I'm getting too old for this many miles!

@rhoing I couldn't do it anymore. I admire you for it.

Nice close up. Your trip was full and happy!

I'm glad that you are no longer filling. I'm afraid I was giving most of the fillers a rudimentary glance. I'll know to pay better attention. It's a long drive from NC to MA. I can't remember where exactly you live, but I'll bet it's equally long. My last trip up there was prepandemic. I need to go back to visit my brother and his family but the long drive with all the crazy drivers is a bit daunting.
