nyr travel updates

talked to mike over an hour ago and the crew was getting ready to pray & then they were heading out of castle rock. the truck & trailer are going to pull out ahead of the bus & hopefully get home a little earlier so we can have the totes & stuff off the trailer before antsy parents get there to take their tired campers home. they did have a little trouble with the truck...had trouble getting it to kick out of 4-wheel drive, but a half-hour of work in castle rock got it fixed.
mike said packing up went excellent compared to how its gone some years. they were actually down the mountain earlier than usual which is positive, especially since they needed to work on the truck.
i found myself a little short with mike when he called...wednesday night he didn't call until 11 our time (10 his) so i was sleeping & not real coherent. so last night i kept myself awake until i finally gave up after midnight...so when he called ever so cheery today i was a little tense. i'm willing to dismiss my growls b/c i'm sure he was busy getting things packed up & getting the kids to settle for curfew, however let's just say i didn't get up real early this morning! anybody want to meet me at the church around 6 or so to unpack totes, tents, sleeping bags, freezers, chairs, tarps, & the like? no?...i'm shocked!

i commented on your blog, too...not sure exactly what time they'll roll in. 6 is a guess. mike's going to call when they are an hour out...want me to call or text you when i hear from him? it just all depends on how they travel..how often they stop..oh, you know the drill! do you know if relief drivers are going out?
