An unexpected event

We are leaving for PA either this evening or early tomorrow morning. A Great Uncle of Adam’s passed away yesterday and the funeral will be on Friday, with the visitation being on Thursday in the afternoon and in the evening. We would both rather leave this evening, seeing that the majority of the driving would be done at night. Anyone with small children can understand why that would be a plus! That would get us there sometime mid-afternoon tomorrow (Wednesday) and would allow us some time to unwind from the drive (for we will drive straight through) and to chat with family members. Unfortunately, Adam is working 12 hours today and will not be getting home until 6 pm. He’s not sure how much driving he will actually be able to do and I’m not the best night driver. We do have a full bed in the back of the van, so it is possible for us to pull over at some rest stop and catch a few hours of sleep.

It is not decided yet when we will leave, but leave we will. And we will return on Sunday sometime. It will be nice to see the family down there, but I sure wish it was for better reasons! Please pray that we have safe travel.
