Today, I drove up to visit my son who lives about three hours away. I’ll send a couple days here then had home. Not a major trip, but there’s something about getting behind the wheel of a car and driving somewhere that is simply fun. Three hours for my road trip was just about right – not long enough to be grueling or even to get bored. My mind wanders freely while driving, coming up with new scenarios for my books and new perspectives on just about anything.

Had a great time today. Looking forward to spending some time with my son, then a pleasant drive home in a day or two. I like road trips.
