My son is now a Lord of the Rings fan.

Originally Posted By Autopia Deb Well the weekend is almost over, but I spent ALL day yesterday in the car.

AAA helped us back into town and of course the only place that could fix or replace the tire wasn't open at 6 AM on a Saturday. Fortunately, the Wendover Quality Inn (the guy who runs the place is wonderful!) let me get back in the room we checked out of so we could use the bathroom and I could take a short nap. $100 and 4 hours after our initial departure time we were finally on the road and pulled into our driveway around 7:30 PM Pacific time. Sunday has been laundry, car washing (it was an insect horror movie on the front of my white car) and recovery, ahhhhhh. Next weekend I have absolutely nothing planned and I am OK with that.

Some museums offer free food and wine tastings as well.

Here in Austria nearly no one knows the movie, but there are Sound of Music nus tours that take visitors to all the filming locations.

Originally Posted By mele Wow, how fun! Congrats! Two things: hockey & sewing. That's it. I kind of want to make cookies or something but first priority is getting my daughter's costume done. She doesn't know it yet but she'll be wearing it at Disneyland (in less than 3 weeks. Yikes!)
