Dripping Wet Dorks...
It's still raining; I may have to hurt someone soon......enough said.
Laura Bush was in town today to raise money for "would be Congresswoman" Martha Rainville. Of course Liz and I wouldn't cough up $200 or the more intimate setting fee of $5000 to see her but we thought a little trip to the airport to see her plane was in order. Needless to say it was small...probably "Air Force Thirty Seven" or some such. Parked across the tarmac over by the Air Guard buildings, we couldn't even make out the words "United States of America" on it until it finally moved on down the runway. One of the local TV stations sent camera crews to film it's take off...good grief, I thought the poor camera guy was going to have a heart attack after sprinting up the steps to the observation tower..he got the footage though.
So if you were on Dork Patrol today you'd also catch Liz and I on the evening news...yup..they wanted to interview us. Liz talked me into it but I moved to the background and let her talk about how we didn't have anything else better to do this rainy afternoon. Dorks. Of course as we were driving out of the parking garage we thought of all sorts of witty things to say...hhmmm ..on second thought, our witticisms probably wouldn't have been fit for the news anyway. We do have fun out and about on our adventures and I'm sure we have quite a few more good years of adventuring left in us.
I told you the rain was getting to us...at least we didn't hurt anyone. Have a good weekend all....

Boy, do I know the feeling! Take care and I'll pray for sun. We had rain today in Aeattle, but that's the first time this week.

Laura Bush was at the Inn at Elizabeth's school. She didn't see her but she said the place was crawling with Secret Service. Elizabeth helped prepare some of the food served for her visit.
