GRANDMA'S INTO ARIZONA

GRANDMA

GRANDMA AND WENDY ARRIVED SAFE AND SOUND IN LAS VEGAS ON SUNDAY EVENING. THEIR PLANE WAS ABOUT A HALF AN HOUR LATE DUE TO DE-ICING IN MINNEAPOLIS. THE TEMPERATURE DROPPED 20 DEGREES DURING THEIR LAY OVER FROM GREEN BAY AS FOG AND RAIN TURNED INTO ICE AND SNOW.

VEGAS

WAITING FOR THE PLANE WAS NO PROBLEM AS MARY AND I ENJOYED HIKING AROUND THE FAIRY TALE CITY OF VEGAS.

BUT CHECK OUT THIS BARTENDER. IS THIS AN ATTITUDE OR WHAT?

MAXINE

IN OVER THREE YEARS OF BLOGGING I HAVE NEVER REMEMBERED TO WISH MAXINE "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" ON THE RIGHT DAY !!! THIS YEAR I EVEN HAVE A FANCY COMPUTER GENERATED CALENDER THAT SITS ON MY DESK TO REMIND ME. BESIDES THAT, MARY HAS THREE GRAND DAUGHTERS WITH BIRTHDAYS IN FOUR DAYS THIS WEEK.

GEEEES..... REX, THERE IS NO EXCUSE !!!

HAPPY 4TH BIRTHDAY MAXINE (A DAY LATE, AGAIN), I CAN JUST SEE THE DISAPPOINTMENT ON YOUR FACE, WITH ME FORGETTING AGAIN.
