He’s on his way home…
6th July 2008
Brian’s heading home. He’s got a long journey ahead of him, and I don’t expect to see him until the middle of tomorrow night or Tuesday am. His race went well today. He finished 71st in the huge main group sprint, and ended up 55th overall. I’m sure he’ll post more details on his website when he gets home.
We had a quiet day with church, lunch at Brian’s parents, and a big long naptime. Unfortunately, though, Analise woke up from her nap blazing hot. Her temp shot up to almost 102 in the next hour, before she finally gave in and took some Motrin. She rested on the couch and a pile of blankets all evening, and I let the kids stay up to watch Cars for the umpteenth time. Everyone went to bed easily, and I’m following soon, hoping there’s no more sickies to deal with during the night.

Made it home! 1400 miles, 10 states on the way home. I picked up a new state on this trip (Connecticut) so I am one closer to Kristine who has been to just about all of the states except for the northeast. It was a very long hard trip in the car – especially the last 200 miles from Nashville to Birmingham. I’m glad to be home!
