Another pearl of wisdom

I am exhausted. I returned home last night, picked up the Screeching Beagles and rolled in around midnight. I had to teach today.  I just want to pass along some information I gleaned during my trip.

The posted picture was taken of me on Sunday afternoon while we were sitting in a charming little outdoor cafe in Manitoba. Sorry, but it is the best quality you can get when you are forced to use a phone for photos.

When traveling between the USA and Canada, one must declare certain items. When flying, this is scrawled on a small form. I had to declare what I had bought. I wrote down some small gift items.

One should never write down "lingerie." My luggage was thoroughly searched by a happy, hopeful, sweaty young man who never stopped smiling. Remo can explain the necessity, I am sure. There is probably a penal code he can cite, too.

I am going to sleep. In the morning I will be doing laundry.

You could have told the sweaty boy you were old enough to be his mother and to get his filthy hands off your underthings.

ROBIN: When he was done, I smiled and him and said, "Whatever it takes for you to make it safer for us to fly." He did look a little embarassed.

They like to confiscate the underwires for some reason. I had one taken in San Diego. What is with that? There was some announcement from the cockpit about the door not closing all the way. It took an hour and a team of six maintenance personnel to jerry-rig it. If I didn't know better, I would have walked the wing to see if they needed any spare parts.

Hi Suzy,

That is a very good picture of you.  You look great and I am surprised you never showed us a picture of yourself before.

I can tell you are having a nice vacation and you will have to tell us more about Remo LOL!!!  On a serious note only when you are ready to share with us.

They should have women working customs as well so this way men don't handle women's undergarments.

Hugs,
Anita
