The next day we walked through Central Park, what a wonderful park!! Central Park is a large public, urban park in New York City, with about twenty-five million visitors annually. Most of the areas immediately adjacent to the park are known for impressive buildings and valuable real estate. Centra…

When I got back to my friend's apartment in Seattle, I was exhausted. I laid down to rest for a little bit and ended up sleeping for a few hours. It was evening when I woke up so we went to get dinner and then went out in Capitol Hill. We went into the first bar we could find that didn't appear to …

Unlike the last escape this one really did last more than one day.  And because of that we found it necessary to do a little planning.  But again it had to be very quiet and discretionary. No one should know about these voyages into the other realms.  From outside our living structur…

My adventure began in Kansas City, where it was a cool 30 degrees F when I arrived at the airport. I didn't want to pack a coat with me to the warmth of Taiwan and Indonesia, so I hesitantly left it in the car and stood freezing as I waited for the airport shuttle. My flight today took me…

Some random thoughts about Sunrise & Mornings some that are very different than Old School Bill's.    " SUNRISE IS the BEST PART OF THE DAY"  If you're going to do something tonight that you'll be sorry for tomorrow morning, sleep late.  ~Henny Youngma…

OMG I have been looking forward to the mini then BIGGIE LA MEET UP!!!! The last LA MEET UP was on December 8th 2007. I txted joy about 9am, I knew she was picking up Jeremy and then picking me up at 3pm. I just remembered Jeremy (vulindlela) misses IN-N-OUT burgers. It is a must to have an IN-N…

Monday was going home day...always kind of sad when you're having so much fun away from home.  Joy took me to the airport at noon during her lunch break, but I was able to hang out at NBC once again for the morning.  We had breakfast at the commissary...egg white omelets, and then got to …

Summary of the places I have been, things I have done.

It's the summer of 2008 and time to light up the sky once again!  Last year, I somehow adopted the nickname "Sparkler" and it stuck.  Sparkler (who is a member of "Billy Boom's Crew") is now off to pick up this weekends' fireworks. This weekend is our community Relay For Life (a fundrais…

So after fighting to get out of the bed this morning...  I dragged myself in the shower and got myself ready. Lord Mike had a package that needed to be signed for... and at the time, we thought it was arriving at 1030...  Betsy had family plans so she was out and about already!We drove fo…

Theres nothing like New York City. As they call it the Big Apple or the Capitol of the World. It offers everything a person can desire and more. My sister and her friend came over to visit me for the weekend. I decided to take them to some of the famous spots in NYC. New York City is like an endless book, once you think the book has ended. Another chapter emerges. What can i say, the more i experience New York City, the more I LOVE IT.

Frankcanfly happened to be coming through Colorado Springs and wondered if we might be able to meet up.  "Of course!" was my immediate reaction and we went from there.  The Springs was hosting an Inaugural Summit Brew Fest & BBQ, so in an attempt to be a polite hostess asked Frank if …

Las Vegas is one place that I do not mind going back to time and time again because I actually have friends that are more like family there. When I think of time away from Tucson, I think Vegas, lol!! I have a weekend planned at Rio where I can actually dance at the Vodoo loungue, so for my Vegas T…

Like I said, I got home by 1:30, in bed at 4 and up at 8.  What's my total sleep count for the weekend??  Not sure?? Me either.  Erik says about 10 hours!  I think he's right.  I spend my Monday running errands with my daughter by 9am.  We make it home by noon, have lu…

What a nice weekend Nicole and Leon invited me on. I sort of feel bad now because I was really looking forward to being somewhere else this weekend but things didn't work out so I begrudgingly accompanied one of my favorite new familes to Temecula. But they had a surprise for me beforehand - a Gala…
