I'm sure you will use your creativity to avoid anything that get the boys
in blue involved!

I am, however, reminded of my sainted mother, who once confided to her
mother that she sometimes was afraid to bathe me and my brother, for fear
she might drown us. I hear her mother would not speak to her for a week,
but that may just be an apocryphal add-on.

Maybe you'll get lucky and catch up on some sleep during the trip.
