Oh, where is the song that goes like this?

Monday began with packing, making sure we hadn't overlooked anything, and making sure we'd be able to carry it all on the El and on the train back to Lansing. Also I completed my swiping the bottles of skin lotion provided daily; I'd been using them to soften my poor chapped hands. I reassured bunny_hugger, I had gloves now. My hands are in improving shape.

( The high bulk of the day was eating and travel. But there was also lunch, and the last few bits of seeing folks.  )

So in what is for us the early evening we got to her home, and settled in.

Trivia: Ted Judah, early lobbyist and engineer for the transcontinental railroad, was allowed in early 1860 to open a ``Pacific Railroad Museum'', advocating the project, in the Old Vice President's Room within the United States Capitol, on the same floor as the House and Senate halls and across the hall from the Supreme Court. Source: Empire Express: Building The First Transcontinental Railroad, David Haward Bain. (And yet nobody ever tells the story of the second.)
