Dad called the weather people this morning and the weather is no good, especially over Lethbridge and on. We are staying another night here in the desert, it's better to be safe. No point in rushing our last leg (of over 30 legs). We will likely take off tomorrow.
Thanks for all the thoughts and your patience, we will come home eventually, no rush.
Later...
Here are a few statistics:
-flights (legs): 34 so far
-customs: 13 for dad and 14 for Doris and Lori
-beds: 27 different beds
-hours flying: 105 so far

Wow, so close to home...good on you for waiting it out and not letting impatience drive your decisions. The weather here in Abbotsford is supposed to get a lot nicer starting tomorrow.
Looking forward to hearing about your adventure. You're a great example of pursuing your dreams.
