What a day! I hate it when things go wrong, and there really isn't anyone to blame but me! I drove down to the Sacramento Airport yesterday to pick up the scouts. When no one I recognized got off the plane, I checked, and AJ wasn't on the flight. I then called Ralph, who called the other parent who was picking up, and they said that they were flying in on SUNDAY. I then drove back home (285 miles round trip) and I get to go down again today to go get them. To add insult to injury - I woke up with a migraine today. It is going to be a lovely day!



AJ did call in last night and told me they were expected to be in at 11:00 a.m. instead of 10:00 a.m., so I have more time to do thing around the house before I leave. On the way home yesterday, I could almost set my clock by the temperature rising. About every 15 minutes, it went up one or two degrees, after about 11:00. It was 102 by the time I got in at 1:00, and even hotter by the afternoon. I didn't get a lot done yesterday!



AJ didn't have a lot of good things to say about their trip, so we will see if it was any fun at all. The leader got sick after sitting by a passenger that coughed on him the whole way out, and then one of the scouts caught it from him, so they were miserable (and if the leader is sick - how does the trip go?). It sounds like there was a problem with one of the campsites AJ reserved, as well. He said they were scammed on the site, and he hates the people of Minnesota - they are all jerks.




This is the way that our new treadmill is being used in the summer heat!
