Hanging out in the MN airport. We had a great trip to Santa Fe, and while the cost of the babysitter was roughly the cost of flying all the chilrens down there with us, it was worth it to have the QT with just the two of us. And the hotel had Frette linens- I have to say, I didnt think they were worth all the blather I hear about them in magazines and such.
One neat thing- I now know where the Granddad got his turquoise bolo that he used to wear all the time. And where Grandma got that bracelet that is different color stones, remember it? It lost a stone and mom went to a jeweler to have it replaced. There is a whole row of Native American jewelry makers in the main square of Santa Fe selling the identical stuff. It was neat to think of the grandparents there on a continuing medical education trip, just like J and I, shopping just where we were. A caveat- I decided to buy a similar bracelet because they are really beautiful and also because it seemed a special way to honor the grandparents memory. A very similar one was priced at $450. I am sure the vendor saw my jaw drop. There is inflation for you. Maybe I will get one on the next trip...........
