Getting prepared to travel

On Friday of this week, May 4, we will fly to Sacramento CA. We return after a week or so. The purpose of the trip is to attend a wedding in Pleasanton, CA, and then to drive to Palmdale, CA to visit our son and his wife. We will see some friends in the Antelope Valley as well. We lived there for ten years.

The wedding should be interesting and fun. The invitation said "black tie optional", so I used the opportunity to buy a tuxedo, the first I've ever owned. There will be some other formal events to attend in the near future, so I thought it would be worthwhile. The bride is the daughter of good friends, and we met the groom the last time we were in California a couple years ago.

We are really looking forward to our visit to SoCal, as its been months and months since we saw our son and his bride.

My cousin will house-sit and watch the dog while we're away, so we have no worries while we're gone. I've been mowing the lawn and getting a few honey-do's scratched off the list so the house should be fine.
