The Bust Out

Here we go, the bust out is in progress.  Up early the goal is to get to Bismarck. Of course this being North Dakota the roads may be a problem.  Hopefully we can make it to the airport.  Road information is not coming across the radio from NPR so we are looking at the maps on the internet.  The information is sketchy, but will have to do. Getting stuck is not a good option.

As always there are dozens of little task, like shut off the water, the water heater and so on.  The real trick is not to forget something vital. Wait the guy on the radio is talking.  Maybe he will say something about the roads.  He is giving the weather, how about the roads.  Nothing, he said nothing about the roads.  Mrs. Kadizzle is still in her PJ's.   Getting Mrs. Kadizzle to actually blast off is a big job.  Each little detail has to be dwelt upon.  The house must be sparkling clean when we leave.  The garbage disposal has to be sanitary, the window blinds just right.  The obsession goes on.  The garbage can has to face the right direction.  Now, Mrs Kadizzle is inspecting my luggage.  The TSA right here in my kitchen.  Now she is going to repack my grab bag.  This is how things get messed up. Kadizzle puts something in his luggage and Mrs Kadizzle takes it out.

So keep up to date, see if the next epistle comes from AZ, or will we be stuck in the winter wonderland?
