Over the river and through the woods...

And the Honda knows the way to carry the sleigh... 

We'll be joining a few other million people on the road today for what is becoming an annual Thanksgiving pilgrimage.  It's hard to believe that last year Maya was a tiny newborn, and now she's running around and loves to eat!  She'll be sitting at the table tucking into a turkey dinner with us.

There will be traffic, but it's good weather for driving over the mountains. Yesterday was the eighth straight day without rain in Western Washington.  It's foggy and icy in the morning and the air is getting a bit cruddy with smog, but no one can remember a dry November like this, usually the season of cold, windy storms in the Northwest.  

The probability of getting eight wet days in a row in November is about 97%.   Or to put it another way, that's just a  3% chance of having eight dry days in row.  Just another nerdy weather statistic from Cliff Mass, Great Weather Guru of the Northwest. 

Hope you you have a peaceful and restful holiday with old-fashioned blessings.  I'll try to check in with a few pictures from the other side...
