I wrote a post that you can read below that deals with packing for a trip. That’s what I’m doing right now. We leave for Texas in the morning. My daughter is in Kuwait right now and will be leaving there to come home in the next couple of days. She’s been deployed since October 1, 2006.
We’re driving there and I have all the essentials ready to go. I have my meds, ibuprofen, my digital camera and laptop. I’m supposed to be on a diet because I have high blood sugar and the doctor wants me to lose some weight. By the time we get back I’ll probably have to get the hoodia patch.
When I get back I’ll probably have quite a few travel stories to post. Stay tuned!

Now is the time of year to take the kids to see Santa. I think the best place to go is Storybook Land. My kids went every Christmas season. Their Aunt Laurie always took them which gave me the chance to get things around the house ready for a visit from Santa.
Storybook Land has been around for over 50 years and it’s located in Egg Harbor Township, NJ on the Black Horse Pike (Rt. 40/322). The park will be decorated for Christmas. It will be a beautiful sight to see. The rides are also open. I’m sure they maintain them well with their Ingersoll Rand air tools. Here are some pictures from 2005.
The grand arrival of Mr. & Mrs. Santa Claus is the third Saturday in November. The Storybook Land characters will welcome them. Be here at dusk when Santa comes up his chimney to wave his magic wand to light the park with thousands and thousands of lights for the holiday season.
Be sure to go if you are in the area. The kids will just love it!
