Five days from today we will be having breakfast here. Not just any breakfast, either, free, made to order breakfast. Omelettes so tasty and delicious they are worth the price of the motel, and they are free. Normally I have the jalapeno, sausage (sometimes bacon, sometimes both), cheddar, and spinach, (spinach is so healthy). They are all good though, and I will document my choices and share theme with you, you can hardly wait I am sure.Five days from right now minus fourteen hours we will be having drinks right here. Not just any drinks either, free drinks, Kentucky bourbon on the rocks is my choice, "if it isn't from Kentucky it's just whiskey." Sometimes I will have a beer, frosty cold, refreshing and delightful. Don't worry, I will photograph my choices and share them with you, I hope the anticipation does not kill you.
Free breakfast and free bourbon in Louisville, the Asgard of college basketball. I need to apologize to Tim Miles, Tony Bennett and +christy barongan here, all of whom have a different opinion regarding the college basketball heavens. And, I respect that.
After our little pilgrimage to the Yum Center, where the Louisville Cardinals play their home games, we are off to the mountains of Tennessee, specifically Gatlinburg. We have rented a cabin outside of town, and are planning a relaxing, fun filled trip.
What makes this trip so unique is the inclusion of our blind friend, who is right now being picked up in a small town in Nebraska by my sister (who is now my favorite sister, thank you, Candy) and whisked to Eppley Airfield in Omaha, to hop on a plane, and fly to Saint Louis, where he will hop off of that plane, set around in the airport until he can hop on another plane and fly here. I have never flown often, and hate to fly so I avoid it like a spider covered canoe, (I hate being on boats, and spiders too) but, it seems unless you are going to Las Vegas you can never fly anywhere without flying somewhere else, first. It is a nice way to see the inside of airports, and buy an expensive beer and sandwich though.
We are hoping Southwest Airlines takes good care of him, but, don't worry I will let you know tomorrow if he makes it unscathed. You might want to do a little good luck dance, and throw some salt over your shoulder, and wish upon a star, and touch the horseshoe over the door, and whatever good luck ritual you can muster.
