Home at last

Highlights of the past few days:

The Southwest Airlines stewardess flight attendant who improvised (or perhaps it was scripted) the safety lecture: "If you are seated with a child or with someone who acts like a child...."

Same flight attendant advising the group of pharmacy students from University of Nebraska Medical Center on the proper way to imbibe while in Las Vegas: "One beer, one water, no shots."

Same flight attendant instructing passengers of the seatbelt inspection: "Our attendants will be coming around to make sure your belts match your shoes." (One wonders if this woman used to do standup or aspires to it.)

Seeing the beautiful green hills of Solano and Napa counties.

Dinner at Merchant and Main with Brian's old friend and soon-to-be boss.

Dinner with Thumper and her hubby.

Touring the Jelly Belly Factory in Fairfield, CA.

Happening to meet KLOVE radio personalities John and Sherry Rivers at said tour. (We did not take their picture.)

But the best of all: coming home to our children.
