Denver

Some times people will come up to me and say, “That’s a true Washingtonian right there! Being able to handle cold weather wearing shorts!” Actually, I’m a warm climate beach boy from SoCal.

And then there are the airports I don’t mind having a layover. Now, don’t get me wrong. I prefer getting to my distanation as quickly (and safely) as possible. But, I don’t need the stress of trying to get off a plane to rush to the other side of the airport to catch that flight that leaves in 15 minutes while someone is struggling with getting their many gift bags out of the overhead binds.

It was one of the bigger stories here in the Wenatchee Valley in 2022. And it frustrated many trying to fly out of Pangborn Airport for business, family affairs, vacations, or for those who just enjoy sitting closely to others in very tiny uncomfortable seats on an airbus.

We Got History. Which is a story about, the one that got away. The, what might have been. The someone I used to know. The, I wonder where she is now. We’ve all been there. We can all relate. Heck, we could have written the song. I had a fantastic girlfriend in Ft. Collins, Colorado in 2005. I used to sing to her the Garth Brooks, Make You Feel My Love. I couldn’t get tickets to see Michael Bible’ in Denver for Valentine’s Day, so I bought the Michael Buble’ Live Concert on Blu-Ray, watched it on the big screen TV, in stereo, and made her dinner. I dressed up in a suit (yes wearing long pants) and her in a beautiful dress. I even thought about marriage. But she suddenly, out of the blue, called it quits. And we never spoke again.
