October Party!


I must say something on the "year anniversary" of me starting up this blog! Or I should at least try to get something in here each month as a "record of my days on this earth."

Last weekend we went to the "Thunderbird Balloon & Air Spectacular" which is a new location this year - Goodyear. The health code-violation of a parking lot/lots and fairground (aka airport tar mac?) was cause to send us all to the hospital with allergy induced asthma!

We watched the Blue Angels which, I must say was completely WORTH the 3 hours of walking from the parking lot to the gate, just to be turned away back to the nearest parking lot to wait for a bus, because for whatever reason, the GED/high school dropouts that choreographed the whole experience would only allow you to enter beyond the gates through bus only? Heaven only knows what the purpose of THAT was, since immediately following the Blue Angels spectacular event about 300 thousand other foot pedestrians were allowed to walk out (I'm guessing it's strength in numbers?) while the other 300 thousand remaining decided to wait at the health code violation of a dusty/mite ridden, dry grass allergy magnet of a parking lot in a 2 hour long ling for a bus to take them back to their parking lot so they could then wait in line in the streets for the incompetant police brigade to direct traffic or play with their "jeopardy buttons" to get the light signals to change when they wanted, but not at all in a manner pleasing unto the general public!

But what a spectacular display!!!
