Nov 7

3 1/2 hr drive for 3 days. I have reservation at family hotel restaurant that makes big dinner every year. Going to buy two breakfasts the day before because nothing is open thanksgiving morning. Room has frig & microwave. Bringing dog and view of ocean, indoor pool.

My kids live out of state, I am either flying if my flight doesn't get canceled for Christmas or will drive over pass and hope for no snow.
