I didn’t actually shed a tear, but it felt a little like sending my baby off to college.  Erin and Ben are now the caretakers of the Little Lit Lab.  They drove it through Glacier National Park and brought it home to Seattle.  Erin will now be using it for Lit Lab activities on the west coast and I will keep the momma Lit Lab on the east coast. Professors Plot and Page will still meet up for further adventures.  They will just do half the journey by plane, train or bus.
