Congratulations, that’s a great achievement! Not sure what a “juried art show” is though.Our son has a photo in a juried art show - the first time he's submitted work for a juried show. That isn't the big news, though. It's that he came in second! We're so happy, and very proud of him.

You first must submit your art to a panel of judges, rather than just pop over to a gallery and hang your photo. Then the jury picks those that they feel are worthy. I can't find numbers online, but I kinda remember that only 40 pieces would be accepted, and that there were several hundred submitted....Not sure what a “juried art show” is though.
That's wonderful, CG! [emoji16] So happy for him.Our son has a photo in a juried art show - the first time he's submitted work for a juried show. That isn't the big news, though. It's that he came in second! We're so happy, and very proud of him.

Aw, too cute, Cheryl. That's one way to keep the kiddo out of the way [emoji16]
Anyway, there is a town police officer at our door. He starts out by asking if we're OK. I say we're fine, why? He said that the neighbor called to have them do a wellness check on us.
Cleveland Rocks!
We never go via I-80 because of the danged $$$ tolls through NY. Also, it's a longer route since our daughter lives near Canton, which is further south. We prefer the "southern" route taking surface streets to I-84, then basically I-81 and I-80 to OH....One thing I was impressed with was the newness of OH's infrastructure (I90 and bridges)...
16 hours? Pfft! We have twins. Our daughter decided to commute to University of Akron, while our son was headed to Arizona State U in Tempe. College and our move from OH to MA were nearly simultaneous. In about two weeks time we (inhale) drove from OH to MA to close on the house and be here for the movers, turn around to OH to get the kid and head off to AZ, then settle him in and drive back. I can't remember if we returned to OH or just headed to MA after settling Goober in for his first year of college, but I do remember the total mileage was 5,800 and change. Thanks to multiple trips out west (and back), I've seen something more than a rest stop in 34 of the Lower 48....I thought the 10+ hour drive to Cleveland was bad. Guess what, the wife and I will have to do 16+ hours to Evanston, IL as she transferred to Northwestern for her sophomore year. We plan to do the initial drive and then she'll go back/forth via plane.
