    Wow... you're moving down to the "frying pan"...

    I hope you can deal with bumper to bumper traffic better than I can. I get horrible road rage. Can hardly stand Madison traffic.

    If there's more than 3 cars at a stop sign here in little Podunk, it's a traffic jam...

    We don't even have a stop light in town.

    Phoenix is for evenings or weekend. Traffic is crazy there.

    I'm working less than 5 minute drive from complex. I'll ride my bike when under 90. I get to school by 6:45, I'm a morning person. Will probably be home by 4:15.

    I've a pool and AC, so I'll survive. Just in case, I'm bringing a fan. LOL!

    Sounds good.

    If you ever get down to Tombstone, would love to see pics of it now. I was there long, long ago. I don't have much of a visual memory of it.

    I drove semi truck for DSW out of Tucson for a brief while... 'til my co-driver fell asleep at the wheel and rolled the truck. That was the end of my truckin' days.

    So I'm out in the garage doing curls (not that Olympic shuffleboard-looking crap but with weights) and up walks two guys and I immediately recognized one. He was in the 11th MEU in Somalia when I was. They were handing out flyers for some Memorial Day service at the church up the road. The other guy was retired Air Force.

    First thing he asked was how did I end up here. I was born here? We chit-chatted a bit and they moved on. That was MY surreal moment for the day

    Sassy Lady and I have plans to do just that when the weather cools!
