As we have been travelling north on our little adventure we have seen lots and lots and lots of Florida license plates also heading north. I mean when we were in North Carolina and lower we saw almost more Florida tags then any other license plate. I commented to Bug that all of these "old" people were heading north to see their grand kids. He said, "Like us"
Whoa! stop the bus. I have become one of those old people driving north to visit the grand kids for the holidays. This is so far out of what I thought would happen in my life. But once I got over the shock of reality it was kind of cool. I was getting to do something that I never dreamed in a million years I would ever get to do.
But, Shireen, next year, it is you and Ken's turn to bring the kids south. Yes, that is how it works. The old people drive up until they are too old and then the kids drive south to have holidays with the old people. With Mom and Dad moving to Monticello, that is even more reason for y'all to come and visit all the old people.
I am so glad that I grew up in Florida so I know how this works. Now, just to convince the kids.

Frankly, honey- it's probably easier to transport to go see the kids than it is to have them at your place. Just sayin'....
