Is it just me or does this happen to others as often??? Remember when Sali and I (and our spouses) were at Disneyland and saw Lois Gard? OK - here's another....
My oldest son, Dane, and his wife, Lori, adopted a wonderful, cute, etc. etc. little boy from Ethiopia last September and I went down last week to meet him and spend time with all of them.
My guy buddy - Wes Thrash - and his wife, Betty, came over to Dane's the day before I was to leave and meet Ty (my new little grandson). Great - we are out on the patio visiting, etc. and Sharon Jeffries Lingel calls Wes (She is buying a home in Good year - about 35 miles from Wes who lives in Scottsdale). I'm big on details as you can see. Soooo - when he hangs up he tells me about her moving and that she is going home to Wenatchee the next day via Spokane. I'm scheduled to go home the nest day and It's the SAME flight as mine. OK - that's a weird coincidence. Dane printed out my Boarding Pass - I got "B" 1 - which is good. Soooooooooo - I get to the airport and when they are boarding, I am "B" 1 .... BUT.... Sharon is "B" 2. How ironic is that.
So, of course, we spent the next 2+ hours next to each other and catching up. Great way to spend the time and how often could you expect this to happen.
If you have situations similar with classmates, let me know, and I'll share them on the BLOG.
Every day that I was in Phoenix, my d-i-l (who is trying to convince me that I should move down) says - "Look, no snow and no shoveling". I can certainly see why people get winter homes in AZ but I love my home and for now can't even imagine leaving it for that long. Short visits are about as much as I do for anyone.
Remember - the reunion is September 11th, 12th and 13th. See you there.
