Thingummie Minor and Asy are off to Southern California to frolic. Twenty four hour run and hug marathon event, as we try to visit as many family members as humanly possible during a one week stopover.
So pardon if I go uncharacteristically quiet at intervals.
Huggishness to all. 
Hope you have a good time - and don't forget to come back soon! 
It sounds lovely! Though perhaps a tad... energetic faints at thought of 24 hour run.,,
don't be gone too long cos we miss ya. But have a lovely time!
