Trapped

Colder temperatures and a lingering light snow made me feel trapped yesterday. After just one day of indoor activities, I felt cabin feverish.

With the upcoming MEA break, my thoughts turned to escaping. But where?

Starting at the top of my family tree, I ruled out flying to Denver to spend the weekend with my brother. (Too expensive) Next, I had a long conversation with my sister Loretta. It is her birthday on Monday and during the visit she informed me that she had to work next weekend.

So, do I keep going down the list of siblings and/or their families or hope a friend is free? Avoiding the chores of feeding and cleaning up after pheasant hunters is proving to be quite motivational.
