When we were in Montrose a week ago, we traded in the Jeep and the Honda for
a new Jeep. They couldn't get the tow gear for the new Jeep in time, so we
left, driving separately, for the job in Cortez. After the job in Cortez,
we could drive back to Montrose and give the Jeep back to the dealer for one
more day while they put the tow gear on the front. From Montrose we got to
drive off together, towing the Jeep, back to the front range.
We thought we knew what our schedule looked like for the next couple months,
but things change. We'll go hug the kids for a few days and decide when and
how to get Judy out to California with her mom. She could just fly out
there and leave me here, but that's not how we usually do things.
