The best laid plans...
We all know the story. Had a great trip mapped out for this summer. Spent tons of time on the route. Thought the wife was on board, but alas at the last moment, ie the day before, she made things difficult and I went on a three day instead.
Now that she has physically seen me survive a short trip in high heat, she has consented to the trip next summer. A successful marriage takes broad shoulders to handle disappointments, but also requires a can do attitude to find a way to get things done that is agreeable to both parties.
Here's to next year!
