Well it is the night before I leave....and I am pretty much ready.  Just have to pack.  And for those that know me, I like to do that right before I leave. My flight tomorrow is at 5pm out of LAX, so I will be leaving here around 11:00. Since I have flying issues, I will prob toss and tur…

Well, the motorhome mutinied but I was damned determined to make it up to my boys. We were so pissed off at the whole situation that we decided to just leave everything where it was for the night last night. But in order to get the motorhome fixed I knew we were going to have to unpack both th…

Well tomorrow is the day we go to Lost Wages.  My friends and I have been looking forward to this trip for weeks. Looks like there will be 5 of us going as some wussed out :(  I am all packed, and ready to go. All I have to do is get thru a 10 hour graveyard work shift. I have been prom…

Today was the day to return to reality.  I had booked a airport shuttle to pick us up. I went online and found one a bit more reasonable than the one suggested by the hotel.  The driver picked us up (on time) and started for the airport. We had to make one more stop, down a very long and …

This morning has been a busy day.  The boys are now out of school for the summer, so they are always underfoot.  They have been out a whole 5 days, and I already heard, "We are bored, there is nothing to do"!  Keep in mind we live on a street with approx.  12 boys that are all w…

Well as is normal for me, I am just a big ball of stress. Tomorrow is going to be a long day with the flight time, and then the first tour day. I was hoping to get some sleep tonight, wake up around 02:30, shower, load up the SUV and head up to LAX. But I am just tossing and turning. It is funny, I…

I had decided we would leave Reno...when ever the hell we woke up. I was not in a hurry to get home, yet at the same time needed the peace of mind of being there. The thoughts of what waited for me back home kept me tossing and turning all night. Finally about 6am I gave up the ghost and got up and…
