So, just as I was congratulating us on getting out of the city without a hitch and John was texting Scott about when we would be there, we hit a traffic jam on the beltline. It had rained for 30 seconds and that was enough to cause a wreck beyond our exit that caused a back up. I started out handling this well, but after an hour and a half to go 10 miles, started to lose my temper a bit. Coupled with the fact that my mother called to say that my uncle who
was ill in Texas had passed away that morning, it was not good to be John in the car next to me. We did finally make it to my brothers' and got to see our nephew, Michael, who has grown way too much. John and he kept hitting the video games
and basketball hoops and John was happy to keep up with a 13 year old. We got to just chill out for a couple of days, with things like naps, reading, and catching up on the computer. I still had work to complete from last week before we left and I did finally get my assessments
in, just can't figure out the new software very well. Can't say that Scranton has much to offer beyond the visit with family, there is an anthracite museum and steam train museum, but these did not hold much allure....
