I am just grinning from ear to ear. Can't wait to hear those words "we got her".
Have a wonderful, God-blessed trip, my friend. I'll be thinking about you a lot and praying a smooth ride till you touch-down at home again.
BTW: we got our TA - we leave Aug 7. We'll wave as we cross-over!
Lots of love and hugs,
Wanda
