| All good things must come to an end. Well, we packed our bags and left Sunday morning for our return 2,455 mile trek back to Temecula, California. Tonight we will make Louisiana so we can arrive in Houston on Monday for a meeting the the Scleroderma Registry folks and learn more about the advanced research that is being conducted by the University of Houston School of Medicine. It took a few hours to pack and get the website posted before we left. The computer was out of power so we went to Starbucks and logged onto T-Mobile wireless. This mixup cost us about an hour, but all was okay as we beat the major tidal wave of Bike Week bikers escaping Daytona. As you see in the pictures the streets were pretty empty when we got out of Dodge. All in all it was a pretty incredible week. The people were fantastic. The sights spectacular. The city beautiful. The weather to die for. Special thanks to Brian and Joanne at the Red Carpet for making our life pleasant and us feeling right at home. And another special thanks to Jill Jacquet and Helen Riger from Daytona Beach Cultural Services Division for inviting us to spend time in their beautiful city and set up our booth. The photo count is down as I was busy driving. But some pretty interesting ones captured in any event. Check 'em out. |
