Visiting Indiana with 56,000 Teenagers

Last week

I went to Indiana with my daughter

and her high school FFA team for the National FFA competitions

and I survived

barely

56,000 people in one area of the city

I have a love/hate relationship with the FFA

and this definitely added to the love part

kudos to a well run convention

The weather in Indiana was

BEAUTIFUL

especially experiencing the Fall weather

rain, wind, and cold

my favorite part was being able to wear

sweaters and tights

it's still shorts weather in Arizona

My sister and I were so excited over the fall weather

we collected leaves to bring home

except mine ended up all over the airport floor

My bag was over sixty pounds (there is a fifty pound limit)

and the not so nice attendant checking us in

was going to charge me an arm and a leg to check it in

not so nice words were flying out of my mouth

and thanks to my sister she reminded me to be patient

so I unzipped my bag in front of everybody

and started downloading stuff into another bag

and leaves were flying everywhere

I did manage to come home with a few leaves
