Fetch!

[billroper]

K finished her last final at Ball State this morning, so we headed down early this morning (not as early as I'd intended, but that's ok) to fetch her home from school. It turns out that I had managed to misconfigure Google Maps during my adventures in Canada two weeks ago with the result that we ended up taking a lot of back roads going to and from Muncie. I don't think this made things take a *lot* longer, but we certainly saw some entertaining countryside.

With help from Julie, Max, and Felix, everything was loaded into a *very* full van. The room was reconfigured for inspection and then we ran out to grab some lunch and hit the road home.

Calvin and Ruby were taken care of today by a dog sitter who made two visits to the house while we were gone. They seemed happy to see her if pictures can be believed. They were also happy to see us.

The library is now full of a half dorm room full of stuff which will have to be dispatched. Happily, this is not yet my problem. :)

I often put Maps into "avoid highway" mode if I'm not in a hurry, especially on a motorcycle.
OTOH I forgot to take it out of that mode a few years ago on the way to the UP and about an hour in I stopped to take it out, because it was going to turn an 8 hour trip into a 15 hour trip.
