Toledo, Ohio

Well, we didn't quite make it to Indiana, but almost. We stayed in a Super 8 motel in Millbury, OH last night - a suburb of Toledo. We got here about 8:30pm. The roads were clear all the way once we got away from the lake effect snow west of Syracuse. Much of the trip I read aloud from Howard Frank Mosher's novel Stranger in the Kingdom, which is really quite engaging. It is set in the early 1950s in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont and made into a movie by Jay Craven, which is how we learned of it. Mosher is a good writer.

We missed the Crockett clan gathering in Bartlett last night, but I talked with Damon, Rachael, Tristan and Daniel on the phone. We 'll probably get there this afternoon sometime. It's going to get into the 30s by tomorrow - like Spring!
