Last Morning and the Drive Home

Monday night was fun in that Graham, Craisors and I drove over to the beach at night.  That night was more bed roulette.  Um, and I don’t feel like writing much more (sorry how I seem to run out of gas on these blogs, eh) so here are the relevant statistics from the last morning and roadtrip home:

Number of collective minutes spent looking for one of Graham’s miniature Cars cars (Clutch-Aid): 55

Time we intended to leave: 9am

Time we left: 10am

Times Graham cried about leaving Port A: 0 (yay!)

Hours it took to drive home: 6

Number of ferries ridden: 1

Number of sheriff’s deputies in the Blue Quail: 2

Minutes it took for Graham to process that the sheriffs meant that the Sheriff from the movie Cars isn’t the only sheriff in existence: 30

Umm, and that’s about it.  Another great trip to Port A and something we’ll undoubtedly do next year to continue the tradition. Thanks for reading!
