December 6--And 8 More Blocks of 50

Math, our nation's shame. --Often uttered by my husband and me regarding many folks' inability to do simple arithmetic

    My niece is a high school math teacher. Alas, she would agree with the sentiment above. Note I said "high school," and she told me the other day that she has students who can't do simple arithmetic, let alone algebra or geometry. It's sad. 
    I did my 12 blocks of 50 miles yesterday with dry roads and clear skies the whole way. I don't believe I have ever, on any road trip, encountered so many semis as I did today. And usually I am passing them, but yesterday, probably half of them passed me. It was crazy. But my safe arrival is all that matters. I had a nice visit with my in-laws. 
    400 more miles and I'll be home. I can generally count on Kansas having considerably less traffic than the rest of the states. Whew!
        Westward ho!

Can't wait to snuggle my sweet Barney!!!
