Vacations are over

Well after my trip to Las Vegas, in August once again I was in the air. I was heading out to Pueblo, Colorado for a "surprise birthday party" for my oldest sister Diane. Her children threw her a "surprise birthday" party on August 18th, (her actual birthday is September 27th), so needless to say she was surprised. But I had another surprise on my way out to Colorado, my Southwest flight was from Phildadelphia to Chicago (Midway) then onto Denver. Well during the stop-over in Chicago, I moved up to the first row of seats on the right hand side of the plane near the window. A woman got on and took the aisle seat, then a young man got on and said "Beth, may I sit in the middle seat". I looked up and being the "senior" that I am, said I'm sorry - do I know you? And, the young man said, I'm your nephew Robby. The last time I had actually seen Robby, other than photos, was when he was about 14 years old, he is now 21. Well, needless to say, we had a very nice visit between Chicago and Denver. He was on his way back to classes at University of Utah, in Salt Lake City. I picked up my rental car - a 2007 yellow PT cruiser - and drove to my niece's place in Pueblo for Friday night and Saturday morning. The party was held Saturday night - I think my niece Jaycee was even more surprised to see me than my sister.
