RDU

Airport again.

On my way to Boston to see my Kling friends: Jalene, Nisa, Rodney, and
James. Can't wait. We are having a pajama party. Lots of things to
catch up on including hoe my friend, Rodney is now a dad. My pal Ruth
Ann was supposed to join us except it was too expensive for her to fly
in from oklahoma. I'll miss her so much.

This is my first time flying since the Xmas day bomb attempt. I can't
pretend that it hasn't gone through my head but honestly stuff like
that goes through my head about all kinds of things especially when I
am flying. But what I've realized is that worrying about it is
pointless. If it happens it happens then and I don't have to worry
about it till then. Anyway a good trip shouldn't be spoiled by such
things.

Toronto

2009 travel takes me to Toronto where I spent a couple of days with a
good buddy from Klingenstein, Mike. It was nice to call him Mike
instead of Canada Mike like we did this summer since we had three Mikes.
I had a great time and got to try my skills at navigating a big city
all by myself. This is the CN tower on my way out of town. I was up
there! is what I wrote in the postcards that I sent to family from the
tower.

Toronto night skyline

The iPhone camera is good but not that good. Mike was so excited to
show me the skyline. It was beautiful--just not capturable in a photo.

Fresh cut flowers

Mike and his wife were the hostesses with the mostestest. I had fresh
cut flowers by my bedside.

Mudpies with rocks and moss

Mudpies

Mike's daughters insisted that the bring their mudpies from the
cottage up north back to the city. They are now on the windowsill
right outside their house in Toronto.
