we are here!

mostly anyway!
This morning we are near Ocala, at Bart's Aunt & Uncle's house. The plan was to visit a bit yesterday and then drive to Lauderdale, but then Georgia intervened.
If you have ever driven to Florida from Michigan, Georgia is your worst nightmare.
We were making great time, the kids were getting along pretty well. No one was too bored. Georgia changed that all. About 50 miles before & after Atlanta, we came to a crawl. No specific reason... there were no accidents or heavy construction projects. (there was some construction, but we didn't even lose any lanes). Just 10 miles an hour for 100 miles, give or take.
It was excrutiating.
We have about 3 hours left. None of us wants to get in the car. :)
But it's sunny & warm. The beach is calling!

Have a great time. I'm jealous, even with the car ride.
