Sara, I have thought about you and your trip west. I am sure you were anxious about the E's at first and how they would take to the long car ride.

I am really happy that they are not giving you much trouble.

Years ago, I took my little Patches to the mountains. I was so careful with her carrier/toys/food etc. She put up such a fuss while she was in her carrier and just sat there and yowled.

I brought her out because she was making such a terrible noise and that is all that she wanted. She sat on my lap, quieted right down and just stared at everything.

Have a good safe and uneventful "rest of the trip".
