Intermission


Have you ever woken up & thought...
I NEED an INTERMISSION???
An ADVENTURE??
A TIME OUT?


I just want to throw some S##T in the car & FLY!


Well, Sunday I did!


Sometimes the idea of 'Gettin Out of Dodge' is just more then I can resist.
No reservations required, no AAA trip tick...
just a full tank of gas & the two lane blacktop.


I do need to go to Mexico for a Drug Run,
well the kind of drug run that old folks without insurance go on. ;)


Hubby couldn't go cuz he had to work on Monday, but I felt like company.
I called the kids to see if they might enjoy an impromptu vacate
& they gladly answered, YEAHHH! 


Thus the random s##t got thrown in the car
& by 10:30am we were on the road to our destination...
Arizona's Mexican Rivera, Ole!


It's a 4 hour drive southeast from our house to


We were out at the pool by 4pm,
floating in the lazy river in our big, yellow rafts.
The water felt so cool & blue,
you know sometimes water really does just feel,
BLUE.


Relax, close your eyes, dream, escape, enjoy...
reality will come knocking at the door soon enough.


But right now, this very moment...
I'm watching my Grandson float down a lazy river
heading for a waterfall & I'm SMILING...
Life is ALWAYS Good!!!

XOXO
