Have a safe trip, Al!thanks!
stayed up until just past 1am last night packing. one kid hadn't actually packed as much as I thought he had.
We pared down... it will probably still be a squeeze in the car.. but at least it should. ... hopefully. ... be doable. It will only be a real pinch for the one week that 2 nieces will also be with us.
Almost in Anchorage. Found a stretch limo service that operates like a bus... it is taking the three of us up, as well as a couple who wanted to make a Costco trip.
