2001 Dressage at Devon
25 - 30 September 2001

Astrid's Journal -- "The Way to Devon"

Thursday September 20, 2001 -- Getting ready for the road

I woke up between 7 and 8 AM, abruptly ending a dream which could have last longer at least 30 minutes, in my opinion. It's strange because Mary told me that she too has been dreaming a lot lately but then of the New York City bombing. When I got up, Mary and JJ were out because the truck had to be checked in order to get ready for 3 weeks on the road pulling a huge 33 feet Alpenlite camper. I ate a mango for breakfast and decided to do the dishes. It took me a while to get the whole kitchen cleaned up and then I got myself behind the computer and worked on some more FEI press releases. Ken got in round 9 AM. Mary worked together with him on installing the portable CD Writer, while I was busy with typing up the Devon officials' biographies. We stayed home today. JJ got the camper ready for tomorrow. I searched for Christine Traurig photos for a special order which had to be done before we left. Mary took over the scanning while I wrote a little more for this computer diary. We both watched some Friends and later on I printed the Traurig index sheets. We saw president Bush's speech late at night just before turning in.
