We made it in to the USofA today, after 21 hrs of travel, clockwork flights, and uneventful trip. Came through Dallas after changing our airline and flight the day before. Delta really disappointed me, so we came by American. Flew around Lili, I guess.

Dad and I went to a funeral visitation tonight of a 40-year-old man who'd been fighting cancer for a couple of years. Was really a fighter, but didn't win this one. But he won the Big One.

Feeling pretty good, but after tonight's Mexican chicken, banana pudding, and some other cake-marshmellow-chocolate-nut mixture, I can tell this trip is not going to be good for me weight scales. Aach!
