Adventures in Transportation

From the beginning of this move, Alex has asked for nothing other than to fly to Virginia rather than drive. Aunt Jackie, who lives in D.C., was happy to fly out and pick up Alex at Chicago Midway Airport the day before we all departed Chicago. Alex seemed intent on not driving 13 hours in the car with us, his sister, and the cats, and who can blame him? Alex got to stay the night with Jackie and Scott in D.C., then spend the day at the winery where Aunt Jackie works. She and Scott took Alex to see The Lorax after work and by that time we had arrived safely in Virginia at the new house. He had a great visit and was so happy to have skipped the lengthy road trip!
