Mini Vacation

    The weekend has been whirlwind, with a trip to El Paso via Atlanta to a cousin's surprise 60th birthday celebration.  In Atlanta we met up with another cousin, his wife, his son and his wife.  After a delay, but otherwise uneventful flight, we arrived late Friday night, which seemed later due to the 2 hour time differential.
      Saturday morning started the surprise part, when the 6 of us were tasked with showing up at his house and "hijacking"him for about 6 hours while his wife set up for a huge catered outdoor party.  Bob was stunned when his wife opened the door and there we all were.  After touristing around for the required hours, we dropped him off and went to refresh and dress.  His party was huge, food, wine, a band and lots of other surprise, to him, guests.  His wife did well.
     We are again sitting in an airport, delayed, awaiting leg one of our flight home.  It has been a great time, a good change of pace, but home, the dark and quiet will be welcome tonight.
