What an awesome adventure you've got planned! I am so excited for you. I've never been to any of those places, but they sound incredible, and then you'll be cooking and painting along the way!? It sounds amazing, and you'll be with your son, too. It doesn't get any better.

My cross-country drive is pretty tame, but it's soothing in its own way. Just letting the miles roll on by...

Distance and limited contact are the only things keeping me on a semi-even keel these days, so I can absolutely relate to what you're saying. If not talking about him feels right, then go with it.

Sleep well, Night Owl.... I mean Miss Painter! smile
