An airplane woke up her sneeze

Apparently an airplane flying over woke Bella up this morning. And she sneezed. Thanks to the dry desert air it was a bloody sneeze so she had to wash her hands and face. When I woke up later she told me that an airplane woke up her sneeze!

Last night was quite an adventure... Ron rode his bike home from the zoo the other day. On his ride through downtown Alb he thought it would be a nice place to go for dinner. So last night Jared and Elena went with us downtown while Grandma and Grandpa R took charge of the 5 munchkins. We stopped at the end of the "arts and entertainment district". We checked out one Italian place but it wasn't what we were looking for so we headed deeper into downtown. About 6 blocks later we are painfully aware of the plethora of biker dudes, muscle cars blaring and booming all around us. And not much else... no restaurants and not too many pedestrians. At one light a tire-burning and screeching contest began. Amidst the rancid rubber smoke smell we thought better of our decision to dine downtown and headed as quickly as possible back to the car. Just as we reach it, 3 cop cars come screaming down the street, sirens blaring, headed for where we had just been. We immediately jump in the car and head the opposite way as quickly as possible.

Back to our own neighborhood and dinner at a delicious wood-fire pizza place. Laughing about our little adventure and admitting to ourselves that perhaps we are old after all!

Thanks, Ron, for the suggestion and the ensuing adventure. But maybe next time we should let Jared and Elena suggest where to dine. :)
