After a fun-filled day in San Francisco, we spent a day in Sonoma before our first leg on an eastbound interstate to Nevada. Driving over the Sierra Nevadas was thrilling, and I can't imagine what it must be like with new snow on the ground. We're now in Incline Village, NV on the shores of Lake Tahoe. We are going to get a big storm today, which hopefully will be cleared from the mountain roads before we leave tomorrow.

The rest of the trip back home is going to be very busy, with workshops in Boise and Chicago, and an IAHL retreat in St. Louis. We have a lot of miles to cover, but going east is easier than going west as the afternoon sun isn't shining in our toddler's eyes and he is much more tolerant of being in the car after 3pm.

I'm dreading the time change this weekend, with the change to Mountain Time right on its heels. It's so much easier to adjust to gaining an hour than losing an hour, and with Daylight Savings on top of it we'll probably be a bit out of sorts for a few days next week. By the time we get adjusted, we'll lose another hour in Central Time. But being flexible is part of the lesson (and the fun!).
