Here I am, in sunny California

I'm exhausted beyone belief, but it's been a great day.  The flight started an hour later than scheduled, but it was a good flight.  They warned of bumpiness, but it wasn't bad at all.  It was sunny and nice, and I had NO idea what all I'd see.

We flew over the rockies (yes Mom, there are pictures, but Bentley has them.  I'll post them tomorrow.)  We flew over the Grand Canyon.  We flew over more mountains, in California.  We flew into some smog.  We landed less than 5 minutes before a small plane belonging to Tom Cruise landed.  Was he flying it?  Maybe, but we didn't get a chance to see.  He's a bit too weird to suit me, anyway.  Still, I'll settle for a brush with anyone famous, no matter how weird! LOL

We landed, we got here, we unpacked.  We walked three blocks to the convention center and set up our booth.  Then, we walked another block to a grocery store for soda, beer, snacks, etc.  A snack size can of Pringles is $3.25 here...yeah, I'll take a full size can for $1 thankyouverymuch.

A couple of hours later, we went to dinner.  It was good and relaxing.  I was drooping pretty hard by then, and we headed back.  Now, it's quiet, and calm, and nice.  We don't have to start the convention until 11 tomorrow morning, so no early rising or anything.  It's only 8:20, but my body is SCREAMING 10:20.  Time for bed?  Maybe, but Survivor is just now on!  LOL  I'm confused.

More tomorrow, including the pic of the Rockies for Mom.  See ya then!

I agree, Ton Cruise is weird.  Sounds like a great trip.  Have fun and remember those of us NOT in sunny CA.
