We decided to take the repositioning cruise up.
Getting back will be the problem. Incredibly, Celebrity says they have
no flights back from Vancouver to San Francisco on June 11, so we may
end up using the Quick Coach to Seattle to get back.
The final destination is Sacramento, but all the flights to Sacramento
have long layovers somewhere - it will be easier and no slower to just
fly to SFO and drive back to Sac.

The legistlature is never so well employed as when they
look to the interests of those who are at a distance
from them in the ranks of society. It is their duty
to do so; religion calls for it; humanity calls for it;
and if there are hearts who are not awake to either of
those feelings, their own interests would dictate it.
