    Eugene Airport

    February 8, 2018 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 41 °F

    Delayed. All was looking good and on time. Then we got on board and taxied to runway. We waited out there for a while then taxied back to gate. Apparently we have heat valve issue. They called a mechanic. As soon as they get here, we might get a better estimate of departure time. Safety first. I am glad I don’t have a connecting flight, like most of the others on board.Read more

  • Sending a plane

    February 8, 2018 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F

    They are sending an empty plane from SF. Hoping it gets here around 3:00. Puts me in SF at rush hour. Thinking of taking Bart to my moms rather than having her drive in traffic both ways. Wish me luck with all that.Read more

  • Morning

    February 9, 2018 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F

    Got up at 7:20 this morning. Pretty good sleep. Had nice hot breakfast. Sunny. Might go to gym. Having issues with their WiFi though so am using xfinity one instead.

  • Afternoon

    February 9, 2018 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 77 °F

    Went to gym, had tuna sammich for lunch, now helping Mum get more music onto iTouch. Had a fresh orange off the tree—so sweet and juicy. 🍊. Nice warm day.

  • Birthday treat

    February 10, 2018 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 68 °F

    This morning we went to help make 100 lunches for the homeless. This afternoon we made my birthday brownies. They are tasty too. A little more cakey than a chewy fudgy brownie but still good.

  • Costco chaos

    February 11, 2018 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 57 °F

    Went to Costco with Dave. Bit of a test of patience as I got bumped into and stepped on a couple times. Had 4-5 items in list to get. Didn’t know where any of them were. The tactic turned out to be walk thru the store looking for item 1. Then walk through the store looking for item 2. And so on. There were also periodic stops at food stations. Very crazy. I was glad to get out. Glad we don’t have a card.
    On different note. Weather is cooler today. MumZ has nice tree in front. And nice birds in back.

    Saw Maria. She drove over for lunch. Wouldn’t let me take photo so this is what I got.
    Chinese food for dinner tonight. 🥠
    Hard to believe vacation is over tomorrow.
