Day 34 -- Road Map

(Note:  The next three entries are all written on Sunday, 16 October b/c I was at my dad's for day 34 and 35, and he has no Internet.)

My daughters and I and one of their boyfriends are at my dad's this weekend.  We drove two separate vehicles so my younger daughter and her boyfriend could go to the funeral of their youth leader.  Since the funeral is about an hour and a half from my dad's, I drew them a map.....a three page map that included both highways, towns, arrows for proper direction, and then written driving directions.   They laughed at me for making such an elaborate map, but I feel much better sending a 15- and 16-year-old out on the open road w/ a detailed, Mom-map.  Makes me think that I should be leaving other maps and instructions for their future trips through life in case I'm not around personally.
