Hi Babe,
I was sure I would get a good night sleep, but alas, it wasn’t to be! Read until 2:00 a.m. before I finally nodded off, and woke up again around 7:30. Got up and did chores and finished packing, had an uneventful drive to the airport, nice flight to Dallas, short flight to Midland, which is a tiny airport, six gates I think, and the car rental counter was in the baggage claim area, so I got all the paperwork done before the bags even came out! I really got lucky on the car, too. I had gone through Priceline, managed to get a really good price on a “dealer’s choice” option, lower than the typical economy car if I paid in advance, which I did, and the woman at the counter ended up handing me the keys to a BMW! If that wasn’t thrilling enough, after I got my bags and walked out to pick up the car, I discovered it was a convertible! Whoo-hoo! Should be fun! Unfortunately, the weather forecast for Friday, my tourist day, isn’t looking very good at the moment, but hopefully the weatherman will be wrong on this one. Still, I may take a drive tomorrow, depending on how I feel.I got to the hotel in short order, checked into one room hoping for a bathtub, but no luck. After I moved into my second room, I looked out the window and discovered it was open, so a slid it a little further open and suddenly a pigeon or maybe a mourning dove was flying around the room! He apparently was hiding behind the drape, he didn’t just fly in. Anyway, I managed to catch him and put him back out the window, but not before he left a little dropping on my sheet, so I had them bring me a new sheet. What a crazy way to start this trip! Finally settled down, got unpacked, got caught up on some stuff, had my Sleepytime tea, now I’m ready for bed. Hoping for a really good night sleep tonight, finger crossed! Good night, sweetie! Love you!
