Hey Michael!

->  HN> It has been hot here, in the mid-upper 90's every day.
->  HN> The lows are only down to the upper 70's. Needless to say
->  HN> I keep the AC in my hotel room set to high and super-chill.
->  HN> quite comfy in the room, but like stepping into a steam

-> 
-> I couldn't sleep last night owing to the upper 70s thing.
-> Finally got to sleep about 5 and slept to 9 something,
-> a paradox, as it was then closer to 80. I have to be at

-> cold or cool shower to comfort me. I don't really like

Summers up here aren't usually too bad, low humidity
and moderate (most of the time) temps with the highs
only getting into the 80's. Where were you when you
posted the above? My last day in Brownsville the temp
was 82 at 7:45 when I stepped out of the motel...
my glasses fogged up immediately!

->  -> Random thought. Why is pork about the same in all the

->  HN> Cause the Italians have always been a

(psst....that's cause they're a bit crazy!) (grin)
Well, I'm back home in the Great Northwet again.
The time in Tenn was not as stressful as I had 
thought it would be. My dad passed quietly and 
without much pain or anquish. A blessing for my
Mom was that he recognized her before slipping
away. The flight back to WA was not bad, I got
to the airport at 6:15 am for a 8:38 flight...I was 
alone in the checkin kiosk, and only one other 
person was in the TSA line with me...evidently
they have to "bomb-sniff) every CPAP machine
that comes through so it was nice that there 
was no line so no delay. Everyone was courteous
and helpful, and I was at my gate in moments.
I don't know what bourbon they serve in 1st
class on Delta/Northwest but it was Gooooood!
Tasted like Knob Creek but the bottle didn't look
right, so don't know for sure what I was drinking
but I enjoyed it! 

A trip that I am glad is over, but was more
than worth the things I put up with to be
there. 
chat with you soon
