Re: Today

Wow- you really have made great time.  I'm glad you are nearly there- 
I'm sure you'll be happy to get out of the car for a couple of weeks!  I 
know by the time I arrived in CA from Maine, I was so happy not to have 
to get back in the car (but I took longer to get here than you have!).
You are on the home stretch Jim- enjoy the afternoon, catch some extra 
sleep, and find a good glass of wine to enjoy.
