I’m Home!!!
As much fun as I had, I am so glad to be home. I missed my hubby and I missed my own bed. Never underestimate your own bed.
I had an absolute blast on the train from Kansas City to Flagstaff. Talk about diversity…there was a guy from Nigeria, a couple from Japan, a whole group of Amish, two from London, who just happened to get on the same train, plus people from all over the U.S. It was a 24 hour party. Of course the Amish didn’t party but they were very friendly and really interesting to talk to. The parents cracked me up when they saw this guy with a massive amount of dreadlocks. They thought it was a wig, and when I told them it was his real hair they made me explain exactly how it’s done. Then they all wanted to know why would he do that, hell I don’t know why so I just said personal choice. You can do whatever you want with your hair or any other part of your body…they all looked at me like I’d just grown another head. I felt kinda like the devil…busting their innocence on more than one subject….but hey, they asked!
I’ll write more later, I’m exhausted! I don’t think I slept much last night
It’s good to be back, even though it’s going to take days to catch up on all the posts I missed from my xanga buddies. I’m sure there are a lot, if I skip the rants about the war don’t take it personal…

Too weird!
My son arrived back in Flagstaff to live with his Mom last night. His plane had a layover in Kansas City and then in Denver. His bags were lost somewhere between Atlanta and Flagstaff.
A while back I went to visit both my younguns in Flagstaff. I enjoyed my trip there. We stayed in a Hotel that had a covered pool. We saw the Grand Canyon, Meteor Crater and drove down Oak Creek Canyon? to Sedona. I really liked those places. The falling rock sigs were a little scary on the canyon drive!
I’m glad you liked my site. I try to keep it intersting!
Thanks for stopping by!
