Seattle to Augusta

We are finally at a stopping point here in Augusta. It was a long travel day, but we are happy to be out on a Spring Break adventure!

The day started early at Sea-Tac. We, of course, arrived early enough to get through security in time for coffee. Have you been through security with someone that has had double knee replacements? It's kind of a show. Luckily the new x-ray type screeners make it easy so mom doesn't have to be wanded all over. Today, however, she left her phone in her pocket which made the whole process amp up a step. At one point she was having her hands dusted for signs of explosives. That would have been fun to watch had it not been for the mayhem that was ensuing around me. All of a sudden I was left with three bags, two pairs of shoes, a laptop and three plastic bins. Everything kept rolling ahead and finally began crashing in to the guy in front of me. It was like Lucy at the chocolate factory!

Once in Atlanta we hopped in our rental car and headed north. We wanted to get part way to Charleston tonight so the drive is shorter in the morning. Tennis at 10am!! Our rental car is "just right" like the three little bears. The first one had no GPS, the second one was built for a smurf, and we were taking the third one no matter what!!

Everyone else in our hotel is getting ready for golf tomorrow -- apparently there's something like the Masters going on here.... :) But we're headed to tennis. Wahoo!
