Twas the Night Before Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas and all through the RV
packed bags are flying and tempers won't ease.
A blizzard is coming, causing a panic-
"We must leave early!"  I think my wife will go manic.
The kids are fighting and crying too.
"We'll miss all our friends boo hoo hoo."
Your friends will be here, it will all be the same.
"Oh Dad, how could you say that, you are just so lame."
The open road awaits us...how lucky are we.
To travel this great country there's so much to see!
The rush is on to hit the road...
We hope we can survive in our tiny abode.
To friends, family, and co-workers-A big THANK YOU!
You've helped make this happen-couldn't have done it without you.
We leave tomorrow...what are we thinking....
By journey's end there'll be lots of drinking!
We're heading south down good ole' I-95
There'll be plenty to keep the Christmas spirit alive.
A truck stop , a rest area...my gosh there's a lot.
We might even stay in a Wal-Mart Parking lot!
As you sit down to enjoy your big Christmas meal
Be thinking of us...perhaps sleeping behind the wheel.
Merry Christmas to you...and all that good stuff
From the soon to be weary travelling WanderLuffs!
