Change jar

And, we're back again. In loading up the van, the last load was a jacket, our change jar, and a bag -- and I put the change jar behind Ilsa to load it into the car and packed the other stuff, as I figured the change jar needed to be held so it wouldn't fall over -- and I neglected (doh) to let her know about it! She didn't see it, and we drove off to run last errands (getting a Thule van-top carrier for our extra stuff) and, when we were just about to REI -- we remembered the change jar. We figured it was probably gone, but it had maybe $50 in change in it, so we figured we had to check. Our neighborhood surprised us -- it was still there! Good thing we went back for it, as it had more than $80 in it. So we then left for North Carolina for the first leg of the journey.
