I Took Some Good Advice



The Shankster and I usually don't go out after 5pm....unless its a unscheduled, once in a blue moon, trip to the local Walmart to just escape for a while. But recently a few new supporters I have found, let me know its ok to leave the coop for a while. So I took B up for a Saturday evening dinner....sort of a late birthday present. Normally I would have just said maybe another time when we can go early as I think the Shankster and I are the
only ones left on the earth to still eat dinner at or before 5pm. But he called early in the day......so we just decided to go, make it a nite out for just us. We even changed things up a bit and left around 2pm even though we weren't going to eat til 6pm. I told dad we were going in town so he would have to fend for himself for dinner...gee I find myself saying that a lot lately......and the sky didn't come tumbling down either. What's up with that?

Anyhow, we thought we would do a bit of window sho
pping, as we haven't done that in quite a while and we love to do it. So we visited Best Buy and took a look at their Apple computers, Sam's Club and looked at their touch screen HP computers(among other things)....(The Shankster brought his glasses so electronics were the theme for the nite) Then strolled over to The Guitar Center and had some fun in there. We also got a little Crazy and walked from the restaurant to a Speedy gas station and picked up our weekly lottery tickets..(Yes Ammeg & Poppa I said walked, aren't you proud?) And I say Crazy as we always get our lotto tickets at BP. :) Finally we met, had a great dinner at Logan's Steak House (first time for us) and it was a nice Birthday dinner. Kailyr slept through it all and Corey talked through it all. He kept us all laughing.








On the way home I couldn't
help but notice the great view we were going towards with the sun going down and all the lights on the highway....I said to the Shankster this is what it looks like at 8 in the evening to everybody else. We were passing the Airport and I remembered I had my camera. I wanted to get a good view of the sky and the road but out of about 10 pictures this one was the best.






I then tried to get a good picture of the airport that will be opening November 12th. But of course it was a lousy shot. I guess I don't quite know how to operate the camera after 5pm? Most were too blurry or too far to actually know what it was. But I got this shot over by the airport runway and was really surprised to see the pic when I uploaded it to my computer. As I am sure these are a bunch of UFOs taking off or maybe landing? So the government or airport security are still trying to keep things under wraps with the UFOs, but me with my trusty camera in hand captured the truth.




The Shankster says this is just what happens when you try to take a pic o
f runway lights at an airport and street lights in a moving car.








Hmmf.......I like my version better.
