Wedding Travel, Kennan DeWitt

As the three energetic children scaled the car seats to find their places in the highway hotrod, we filled cargo to capacity. The cats and fish were fed and the house secured. The weather was sunny and windy, an ideal travel day. She drove the first shift and I read. I drove and she read to me from her latest novel intrigue. Three hours flew by and we were headed for the pool. The almost 3 year olds quickly developed a healthy dread of the water, but then splashed about in their floaties. Our 6 year old could not be contained and practiced the front crawl, or front paddle. The chlorine was pugent and the youngsters shivered. Dinner was fabulous mexican nearby. A plastic ball game in the hotel was the evening highlight. The kids slept soundly.
