To quote a line of a song, "If you want to hear God laugh, tell him your plans." 
Our plans were to be leaving today heading north to Alaska.  However, that is on hold because of health problems my brother is having.  We are discussing alternate plans with a sister and brother-in-law.  They won't get out of school until the end of the month.  SO it looks like we will be here in Passaic a little longer.
