Vacation, Phase IV - The Journey Home

It's a long drive from Harrison, AR back home. So we started early. We got up at six and were on the road by seven. Harrison is situated deep in the Ozark Mountains. So we spent almost three hours getting down out of the mountains. On top of that, their was thick fog cover that morning that made the going even tougher. We Texan flatlanders don't do to well in the mountains, so we were glad to be finished with them. It seemed to take a long time to get to Texarkana. But then we had to get all the way down to Houston. Texas is a huge state! You just have no idea until you get here. The girls were tired and cranky and everyone was just ready to get home. We finally arrived about 7:15 pm. Back home - back to the humidity we love and crave (when you don't have humidty anymore while you are travelling, especially in the winter, you miss it. You have to live here to understand.) - back to our cats and dogs - back to our beds. It was good to go on vacation and see everyone. But it is great to get back home.
