We're going to DisneyWorld!

Somewhere over Illinois. FlightAware image
On a cold blizzardy day in March, there's nothing better to do than make a peanut butter sandwich, tune in an episode of "Income Property" on HGTV, and monitor the progress of your daughter and grandchild winging their way to Orlando for an exciting week in the sun.
Stan picked up the travelers right on schedule at their Eden Prairie home this morning and loaded: 2 normal suitcases, 1 large suitcase, 1 extra-large suitcase and 2 carry-on bags for a grand total of six travel cases. Kathleen and Stan tend to overpack when they travel, but this is overpacking on steroids, a steamer trunk would have been more convenient. The queen's entourage moves with less.
But you know, girls just got to have fun and look their best while doing it.
So Grandpa just kept loading -- and did his very best to keep his big mouth shut.
