Random Thoughts
One final word before we depart the U.S. : Bruce and Joanie had the above pictured 5 ton Spanish dictionary waiting for me when I got to their house last night. They were planning to slip it into my suitcase in a desperate attempt to win the “light weight traveler” contest. Mentiras! (Bruce tells me that is the equivalent of “Duh!” in Spanish)
Speaking of Duh moments, I found this sign at O’Hare both amusing and poignant. It's like one of those Mensa tests: which word doesn't go with the others.
Speaking of poignant, Bruce just asked me how I felt about spending more on this cup of coffee than most people in the world spend on eating for the whole day, some for the whole week.
This could be a long trip.....

Tell Bruce that coffee probably came from Colombia, so by drinking it you’re supporting farmers there. Okay, I know that’s probably not true. Just enjoy your coffee.
