A CURE FOR DIABETES

Last Updated Wednesday Oct 30, 2002 - noon EST


On Sunday - we arose at 4:45 a.m. for 5 o'clock breakfast. Finished packing and headed to the 6:45 a.m. shuttle for the airport. We were joined by the Cincinatti clan (I think these guys were really the cheese whiz gang in disguise). There was a toast to kickoff the two plus hours ride back to the Las Vegas airport. From Vegas to Newark - then to Albany - shuttle to long term parking - drive for an hour and when Chad and Dad got home (around midnite)... Mom fixed them some scrambled eggs - now that's LOVE.


On Monday - Chad arose for work. Dad arose for coffee and went back to bed. You decide who looks better.
