God is good!  God has provided, perfectly, wonderfully, and right on time.

Despite a financial tangled mess in our personal finances (check from out of country being held causing a cascade of fees etc.–all should clear up in mid August) God has provided the funds, in cash, to cover our trip south, through a variety of sources, including the yard sale finishing providing them at 9pm last night for some work I did on a computer.  And people wonder why I refuse to plan ahead. 🙂

The kids and I will be heading out this morning, God willing, aiming for Alexandria, VA and then Monday or so we head down to visit my dad in Ocean City, MA.  I have one fellow blogger that we are going to try to meet up with while down there, which would be awesome, plus plans with my friend CJ, whom we are staying with, to do some fun stuff with the kids.  We are both pretty much broke so we will be doing the cheap stuff.  I am really hoping to get back down to Old Town Alexandria,  and to Trader Joes. 🙂

I will not have internet access for most of the trip, though my laptop goes with me (where else would I put my hundreds of photos?)  If I find some wifi along the way I will likely check in and I do have a Sunday Doodle finished and reasy to post.

Have a blessed week!
