Night Out was great

    Hi y'all......

    This is a quick posting right now.  I have to get ready to leave to go hang out with my kid today.  I'm taking the train since my car is acting up again and I don't trust it out on the highway.

    Josie was able to use a vet conference to come here to Chicago for the event.  We had a fantastic time.  Yes, she took some piccies.  Unfortunately, there's only one of us together, and I look terrible in it.  We definitely used Saturday night to do some fun girly stuff.  On Sunday she came with me to the museum.  She really enjoyed it.  I was working the Zephyr that day, and while I gave her a walkthough of the train, she really didn't need to see me do my routine there.  I would have rather she saw me in the coal mine or U-505.  My coworkers really took to her and treated her very well.  The guys said they thought Josie's cute.

    I was so depressed taking her back to the airport on Sunday.  We were even pulled over by the police because of the way my car looked.  They thought perhaps I might have stolen it.  Once I told them how it was broken into and was reported to the police, why two white people like us were on Chicago's west side, and that I had just left work, they let us go.  I really don't blame them for pulling us over to check it out.  I'm actually surprised I hadn't been stopped earlier.

    While it was sad to see Josie leave, I do have this great weekend to remember.  I am planning on having another one just after the first of the year, perhaps in late February when we all need a break from the winter.
