In Miami, next to port. Long day with a bad start. And a very long story. May share it in the morning. Nite all!
Yep you do have to be the better to make it past the regular season.
I've be a Chiefs fan all my life waited a looooong time for the past five years and have enjoyed every moment.
Hope it lasts for a few more!!
Tet at the City's Market Center. Very colorful....
I have watched one of these Dragon puppets and was so entertaining, good evening Mitch.
My granddaughter has been a starter for two years now, this year they went undefeated 4A
Saturday morning is here, I made it yet another day, blessed is the man on the hill
Good Morning Mitch and Mike, Good Morning All!
And a good morning to you my friend, getting my day started early to get a good start of a couple things today, hope everyone has a great one, trouble and drama free day. Rolled over 135 thousand miles on Old blue Boy, 2007.
Nice looking truck there, friend had one of the Z71's
Family talked me into it, glad they did, its a tall Cadillac for us on trips, very comfortable and trouble free, and he is paid off now. The 5.3 (327 c.i.) has a bunch of power, amazing really for a big 4x4, loves cruising at 80 all day long
Pace yourself Mitch, read that it goes until February 14th?
I wish. There is no pacing anything. Here. Is already been several parties before today which is the actual first day of Tet. Yes it will go through next week. Wednesday or Thursday I think. But even then it won't be over. It will always be a party every week somewhere. I have taken the position of not raising my beer mug every time they do anymore.
I need to search this Tet thing, enjoy learning about things around the world. How should I word it in a search Mitch??I wish. There is no pacing anything. Here.

Wow, what a great celebration, this year is Year of the dragon, when the fish meets the waters and the dragon meets the sky, everyone wishing for a prosperity and happiness. I am sure the the beer will be pouring and smiles everywhere you look because it sounds like everyone will be off work for 7 days.. enjoy these days Mitch, just remember your not 50 anymore
Looks like you found it just fine. Mike

Morning!
Guessing its around 70 degrees here in Miami
Kimmie is watching our ship come in to port as im writing this. Carnival Magic.
My best friend’s half sister was sitting in the bar when we walked in the hotel,it was priceless. And wow, they are so much alike. Dad passed a couple years ago, didnt know he had a son. Too bad, i think they would have been good friends.

Sounds like the surprise reunion was a win! Travel safe Frank!
Yesterday’s morning story.
Sorry its so long. I was bored on zee plane..
Hey. Its Friday! Off to a great start. Last night hotel clerk asked if we wanted a wake up call. Nah, i got this. Will set alarm on phone. Go to sleep,toss and turn for about three hours.
1:30. Go for a smoke. Try to sleep. 2:30 still awake. Guess i drift off. 3:45, wake up and check time,a few minutes til alarm kicks off…
Nod off.
4:40. Banging on door. Cmon, we gotta go,sharon got us up. Wtf? No alarm? Was set for 4:01. I like to set alarm a little off,cause i am. Hop in shower,hop out, dry off get dressed and comb hair,oh ya, got no comb, i lost it. Brush then. Grab blow dryer,plug in,GGGRRRR! Yup, no go. Its junk. Remember, supposed to be in airport 2 hours early. And we couldnt print our boarding passes. Glitch or something.
Oh i had just discovered my alarm was set for pm. Who does that???
5:10 get in airport, all the delta westjet agents are busy,backed up is an understatement.
Stood in line 20 minutes to discover we are in wrong line. Yay. Rinse and repeat. Hey if you ar booked on flight bla bla babla the line is here. Third line. Insert profanity here. More waiting.
Get to desk almost an hour waiting in line. I hate standing long time and i need to fart. Our turn with the agent. Kims name on ticket doesent match passport, kim should be kimberlee. 10 plus minutes on phone to get it changed. .
Finally! Boarding passes (problem with online check in other wise we would be sailing through this) into customs. 100 or so people with same problem. Tech,issue. Ya. Nothing new.
Never guess, i have been selected for the full search and check. Profanity 2.
So you need to bla bla bla bla blabbity bla, i caught words like shoes, electronics and phone.
It was a shitshow, almost like all of security were trainees. Swabbing all over,what the hell? K. Done i passed, but damn i felt like a criminal at first.
7:00 at gate waiting. For plane. Ah,there it is. I get paged, go to desk and they hand me a new boarding pass. Told me to dispose of old one. Glad i didnt,it was stamped. By security. Otherwise i dont get on plane. Goddamn shitshow. They paged me to give me a pass that was useless.
10:45 almost there,2nd cup of weak coffee. Hungry and cheesies to snack on…
I needed to write this,mostly to kill time and yes **** happens in a cluster!
Atlanta was a peach,cruised through on a shuttle. Piece of cake.
B757 to Miami. Think i will go with the coffee, which isnt much bigger than a urine sample. At this point i will take it.a little dehydrated methinks. Seats? Bricks with backrests and seat belts. No tiltie either. I think the passenger next to me is watching ****, i wont complain after all,she’s my wife. I hate air travel.
Extra leg room typically means drafty window seat and non reclining seats. One for the other.
Wango tango, think i better give it a closer listen…

She did walking 18 holes for the first time in a long time was an accomplishment for her. Other than being tired she had no problems.
