  • RTW – Summer After Graduation

    For Road Trip Wednesday this week, YA Highway asks How did you spend/how will you spend the summer after graduation? First of all, my high school graduation was so long ago, I spent it TPing dinosaurs and riding saber-toothed tigers. It was tricky climbing on those big cats without getting bitten, but pre-historic catnip usually did the trick to lure the beasts into submission. We’d also grab fronds off the tree ferns to use as shade since air-conditioning hadn’t yet been invented.

    This summer, it’s my son and daughter-in-law who have graduated (PhDs in economics) and part of my summer will be involved in helping them move from the West Coast to the East Coast. We have a regular translocation conga line planned, with my son and husband flying out one day with the two cats, and my daughter-and-law and me flying with my beautiful toddler granddaughter the next. Those two days should be quite the adventure.

    I hope you all have a fabulous summer.
