September 14, 2011 ~ Wednesday

Monday I drove up to Phoenix and spent the night in a Hilton by the airport.  I didn't want to make that drive in the dark; didn't know where I was going! I didn't see any "larger" animals on the way up, despite all the signs warning to watch out for them but did have several Road Runners run out in front of me.  I always think of my Dad when I see them....he really loved Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner cartoons! 

My room was really nice but I couldn't go to sleep...I think I was afraid I would "over-sleep" and miss my flight.  I finally got to sleep sometime after 1 am and had to get up at 4:30 am......YAWN!

I had an "uneventful" flight to Portland and then caught a little "puddle-jumper" down to Eugene.  It was cool and overcast in Portland and about the same in Eugene.  I was LOVIN' the weather!!

I didn't have anyone sit next to me on either flight so I slept a  little and read a little.

Tammy picked me up at the airport and we stopped at Olive Garden for lunch and then ran a couple errands.  I was really tired so we had a very early night!

Today, Tammy had to work and a HS friend of mine, Cheryl, picked me up and we ran a couple errands and had some really good Chinese food for lunch.  She took me over to her house to "visit" flowers that I had given to her before we left.  They were beautiful and obviously, liked their new home!

Tomorrow Tammy has the day off; we may go to a couple antique places......she loves really old RUSTIC antique stuff....I will take some photos of her place and post so you can see.........it's very cozy and homey in her apartment!

More later!

  1. So glad you made it safely. I'm sure that cooler weather seems a relief to you! It's downright cold up here in MN during the nights :-\
