Connor is away on an overnight field trip at the Seward Marine Life Center. Due to Alex and Janelle's work schedules, our car situation, my work, and Trevor and Rowen's bus schedules, it did not work out for me to accompany him. At some point, I would really like to go, and this trip sounds like it will be a great deal of fun. Sure, I would have to swallow fears born from a couple of TV shows that showed overnight aquarium field trips going bad, and would have to adjust to sleeping on something less comfortable than my bed, but I think the benefits outweigh the negatives.
Despite my concerns that Rowen would have problems going to sleep without his brother, he seems to be doing fine. He did, unfortunately, forget his backpack (something that Connor helps remind him to bring) either on the bus or at school. Hopefully, that will be the extent of his difficulties without his big brother to watch over him.
I'm sure that Connor is having a good time. I hope he takes plenty of pictures as he was really excited about getting to bring our digital camera (and plenty of batteries for that power-chewing monster). I hope he gets some sleep too.
