The Best Laid Plans
I had all kinds of plans for the weekend. Funny how one tuna sub can change all of that. Yep, I went to Subway and got a tuna sub and within about 3 or 4 hours I was sick, sick, sick! Nothing like food poisining to kill your weekend. Anyway, I doubt you all want the details, so that was my weekend...

Remembering 911: I'm not ready for this
Did anyone catch Dateline tonight? I still have chills hours later. They interviews the air traffic controllers that were handling the two American Airlines flights that hit the towers and flight 93. I can't imagine what that had to be like. You know the planes are being hijacked, you realize that...

Americana
In my previous post I included a picture of a boarded up building. I have no idea exactly what that building was but I suspect it has seen it's last days and sooner or later it will either fall down or be torn down. I took a photo of it, joking that would be our future home in North Carolina as it...

Magic Moments And Amazing Gifts Part IIII Attempt # 4
After the Ocean we decided to head for the Carolina's. I remembered Strat lives in one of them but had no clue which one. I wished I had realized we would take this side trip because the locals always know the best unknown hideaways that are not tourist traps and I would have asked him where to go...

Magical Moments And Amazing Gifts Part II
Well now that I talked all about my friend Karen I can go onto my trip. Rule #1 for all couples traveling together especially when you have two control freaks in a small vehicle: Knock your spouse out cold before driving. Carl is obnoxious when he is not driving and he makes me insane when he is. As...

Magical Moments And Amazing Gifts
I am so incredibly overwhelmed with emotion after our trip that it will likely take more than one post to get it all out. As most of you know I was excited about our trip to Florida but never even in my wildest dreams could I imagine what the next few days would hold for Carl and I. I was able to...

I'm Home
And Blogit lost my entry, I will rewrite in the morning, for now, this should about say it all. Before Iraq: After Iraq. Specifically this weekend. As I look at these photos, I see something very particular and oddly telling about the feel of things. I wonder if anyone else notices the same thing....

It's Official: I'm Allergic To Michigan!
Yes, I know you want to hear about the Ocean and all that jazz but I have something very important to talk about here. Besides, I'd rather to tell you about the coolest looking McDonald's and our trip to the Ocean when I get home and can show pictures as well. Very important note for anyone in...

In Florida
Well, we made it to Florida even with the semi that tipped over dumping an entire trailer of beer. Funny thing about Florida, it's HOT! I left Michigan and brough mostly long sleeve shirts, etc... because the weather has been cooling down. I get to Florida and it's 90 degrees. I think I need to get...
