On the Road and not really

Time for a brief update
on The Roadtrip To California.

So far, it's a lot of red tape.

The movers took an Eponentially long time to
load our goods onto a truck. I'm sure they were
all well rested at the end of the day.
If you ever need to know what moving
company not to hire, i can certainly
make a recommendation.

We had expected to arrive
at the border by 2 in the afternoon.
Ha. Movers didn't leave until four.

At the USA border, they told us to
come back the next day. We can't take the
rented car back into Canada.
We stayed , as originally planned, in
Burlington Vermont.

We had an appointment to go back
to the border this morning at 8am.
it's about an hour's drive.

It was a lovely sunny morning. We arrived
for our appointment at 8. it took
Two hours. They told us to
Come Back another time ...

And because of the rented car (etc, etc)
we need to stay in usa.

We got back to the hotel (we'd already checked
out before 7am this morning).

So, Knitting Companion
and i are tired beyond belief.

We'll be making the trekk
back to the border again ....

but i don't even want to think about it yet.
I've just made a cup of tea.
It's time for Knitting Companion's supper.

This isn't a Jack Kerouac kind
of trip. Too Much Red Tape.
