Marlowe is hiding under the bed.
This is going to become a meme as we travel. The poor cat has made two moves prior to this and totally knows what is going on. Harriet hasn’t a clue what’s in store for her and is lounging in the middle of the floor. She clearly doesn’t understand that we are moving to Chicago.
We stayed the night with friends after cleaning out the apartment and are about to hit the road for our first two stops. First up is The Dalles, and Klindt’s Books where I will sign stock. Then we head on to Boise and will stop at Rediscovered Books.
Neither of these are formal signings, but if you follow me on twitter, you can track our progress and stop in to say hello when we are there.
And yes… for those of you who know the game, this is the beginning of an Epic game of #marygoround.
The normal rules are:
- When we complete a segment of travel successfully, you get to take a drink.
- When something goes wrong, I get to take a drink.
Since this is a week long game, I’m going to modify the rules to say that you may have a piece of chocolate instead.
And now I’m going to retrieve my cat. See you on the road.
What an adventure! I’m looking forward to the reports – and the game.
Chocolate kills my arthritis – think I’ll stick to glasses of wine.
Good luck to you and a speedy and safe journey
