Today, we head for Texas to spend Thanksgiving with Brayden, Luke and Kristin, and yes, it is in that order (sorry kids). We will leave this afternoon after my classes, hoping to arrive in southern Illinois at a fairly decent hour, getting about six hours of sleep, and motoring on to get there by dinner.

Terry's new car has 3 free months of XM radio, so that will be great for the drive, although there is a distinct possibility of breaking into a fight over whether we listen to ESPN radio or XM7 on the way (XM7 is the station for 70s music). Could be worse, I guess, but ESPN all the way will be great, plus with the stations that carry college football, even though I won't be able to watch it all this weekend, I will be able to listen to any I can't see.

So, let the holiday's begin. This week kicks off the Advent season, which makes for a very difficult time to keep students focused, er, and the profs. Pray for us, will you?

Will keep you informed as to how our next month goes, and hope many of you do the same.

Happy Thanksgiving!
