Whenever I'm getting ready for a big trip like the New York trip, I get kinda grumpy because I don't want to go through the effort of traveling, even though intellectually I know I'll have a great time. Then when it comes time to leave, I get sad because the trip was too short -- and because I don't want to go through the effort of traveling.
The last day at Bette's Place we mainly just packed and cleaned and took a family portrait and hugged each other and that was that for 2012.
Another one for the record books.

| Here McKenna was helping me frame the family portrait. The backlit nature of the scene caused us to change angles (see below). I find this picture to be strangely wistful. |

| Here's the family portrait we ended up with. Pretty good, except clearly I was supposed to be sitting in front of Mark. The little red blinking light on the front of the camera caused me to panic. The tilt to the frame is easily correctable with modern technology, but I like it. It suits the Larrisons. |

| Uncle Scott and Elizabeth saying goodbye. |

| Elizabeth the jet-setter. This is us getting off the turbo-prop plane at Dulles. I can't remember ever getting off a plane via stairway to the tarmac. Man, was it hot. |
