Kansas Trip

Well, all fools are definitely not dead yet...more about that later.

Up-dates:

First, had a great week-end last; great visit from U Ken/A Susan at our Tucson home, along with Ash and Paul's family, and Jeff and Erica. Watched the younger Dickson sisters get inducted into the Sabino High school Sports Hall of Fame! Tennis prowess! Good Job Battling Dickson Sisters! Very proud.

 I've now just landed in Kansas City en route to Topeka and then Manhattan for various reunions. My 50th high school graduation, and then on Sat a trip to Manhattan for a college fraternity reunion and a Kansas State football game. This is good, since I'm pretty sure the state is down to only two universities fielding a football team this year! (K-State and Wichita State..)

 Now, as I've said all along, it's Good to have old friends. My flight was fine, but when I got to the rental car counter, no matter what I said or pleading, they simply would Not rent me a car. Something about a mistaken identity and, a small thing really, an expired license...good grief. They wouldn't take my pilot's license our even my Senior Nat'l Park pass. Soooo, long story a little shorter, here I sit in the airport. :-(..But! After I got a shuttle reservation, and called a good old buddy that I was to meet for dinner, he's driving up to pick me up and loaning me a car. Some start to a reunion week-end! I'm a senior citizen, no other explanation required!

 Could be worse...I'll keep in touch.

Love to all, UR/Dad
