To keep you all up-to-date, the trip south on June 3 has been squashed on many fronts. My mother balked at the idea of loaning her car for the day. I had thought of looking into how much it is to rent one. I have one of those big Entertainment coupon books and there are coupons for all the various car rental places, so, it seems like it might be a viable option. But I waited too long to get back to the manager at the golf course, and he withdrew the offer. So I don't have June 3 off, and we won't be going south at that point (well, more south than our plans are going...this sucks).

Stay tuned for further details, and have a good Mother's Day.
