Vacation 2009!

Well, our summer vacation is finally underway. We're spending a week in the City of the Sun (that's Phoenix, for those who don't know). And, boy, is it ever! We'll discuss the whole "dry heat" thing at a later time. But let's recap the last two days. I had planned to use video from the Flip Ultra we have on hand, but the software took a dive once we got here and my plans were undone. I'll try and get some of our travel log video up for you at a later date (as if anyone is actually reading this!).

We left home on Saturday morning. First stop: Fort Stockton, TX. We opted to break up the 17-hour trip with a night at Mammy and Papa's place. We'll do the same on the way home, but will leave the kids there for several days. More on THAT to come!

The second leg of our trip began about 9 AM on Sunday. I'll make this report much more brief than the trip itself--after several potty stops and a couple of meals, we finally made it to Scottsdale (where we're actually staying) 12 hours later. Ugh! But everything went without a hitch, so we were thankful. We're now into our first full day at the resort. I'll report on that when the day is over. Pics and videos to come!
