Edward is here! Patrick is playing with Edward after a long trip.

Today was a day of traffic, traffic, traffic. There was heavy traffic at Knoxville, Tennessee, at Ashville, North Carolina and at Columbia, South Carolina. For a long time it was just stop and go, stop and go. But we also traveled through some really beautiful country. As we drove through the Great Smoky mountains, there was a bear crossing sign. Edward didn't see any bears crossing the road, though.

Best of all - we got to Rachel and Mike and Patrick's house at about 4:00 in the afternoon which meant that Edward had time to play with Patrick before dinner and again after dinner. Yay!

Everyone is tired, but it is good to have reached this point in the trip. Edward can hear the frogs singing as he goes to sleep tonight.
