Joan – we are trying to get there on Nov. 18th. So far, we’re on track. Hopefully the weather stays this great.

Hummingbird – Thanks! I’ll let you know what happened in Davenport!

April – Thank you :)

Chiara – Don’t let the good looks fool you. She tried the ‘I’m so sad’ approach while Monkey tried the ‘whine until I get out of this cage’ approach. Both were free in less than an hour.

Eva – I almost want to make those potatoes for Thanksgiving, but I’m afraid of how much butter I will need. After I throw a stick of butter onto the turkey…it might be too much :P

Irish Pirate – Monkey was so annoying. After we realized he just wanted to look over Chris’s shoulder, and not actually climb into the front seat, we gave up and let him look. I think he just wanted to make sure we were still us, and hadn’t turned into mutant monsters yet.

Chey – Monkey took a dump in his cage 30 minutes after the road trip. I couldn’t believe it. It’s like…seriously??? Already?!?! After that he was completely fine. I think the cage really got to him. Though…on the second day, he refused to come OUT of his cage and slept in there the whole day. Doesn’t make sense. But thanks for the imagery of your cat taking a dump behind Doug’s foot. I guess I’m glad that didn’t happen to us :P

Monkey is beautiful! I’d be so afraid of one of them getting loose. We once tried taking one of our cats on vacation with us. She started out being held in my lap, but yowled and clawed to get down. I let her down on the floor, and she promptly went over to the driver’s side and took a dump behind Doug’s clutch foot. Um… can you believe it? that was the last time we traveled with Phoebe.

I hope to see lots more pics of the cats!

Dinner looks carb-a-licious. I’ve made mashed potatoes with only butter for years and the taste is worth looking forward to a bypass if that’s in my future. A friend’s fiance wasn’t a fan of mashed potatoes… until he tried buttered mash. I love the idea of adding fried onions, too.

Happy dining and traveling!
