Heading Back to Canada

Well after 4 incredible days in Kentucky, we came back yesterday to Ontario..... As much as it was tiring and we were glad to be coming home, there was still a sadness in leaving... It is incredibly Euphoric to be there, the incredible music, the phenomenal spirit there.... It's contagious.... I came home really excited, pumped musically and spiritually.... It was a wonderful trip.

I think the one thing that was most memorable, was not just the music but the fact that I got to spend the time there, with my parents... It was really fun... We laughed a lot, and it is a trip that I will remember for the rest of my life.

We were planning to leave Sunday morning around 8 .... But we all woke up early, and decided we might as well head out .... Which turned out to be a wise idea... We lost more than an hour in Detroit... We were only two kms from our exit, on I-94, and had to exit because they closed the highway, I assume for construction. We were re-routed down Michigan Avenue, WHICH, I might add, was ALSO under construction.... So three Lanes of Interstate were being routed THROUGH town, on a street that was reduced from two lanes to ONE for construction... It was slightly annoying...... In the end, it was so slow, that instead of following the traffic out through the full detour, we stayed on Michigan Avenue and went into downtown ( FREAKY ) and took the Tunnel back to Canada.....

When we arrived back in Canada, Mom said it best : " If my back wasn't so sore, I'd get down and Kiss the GROUND! "

anyway, it was a good trip over all.... We were back in Canada by 3:30 .... I was home in Brantford just after 6:30 .... And glad to be here.

Today, I'm dragging pretty good... Was planning on being IN my car and on the road by 10 .... It is now 10 minutes after 11 and I'm sitting here, wondering where my suit case is.... Sigh... Back to work is a bummer after such a wonderful week ....

will upload photos tonight....***pm
