Long, *Long* Day

[la_samtyr]

well, lots of errands as usual. Plus I was late leaving, thanks to Jerry stopping by and not wanting to leave. I *had* to get on the road though. Also stopped @ Inland for gas, etc. But the driving was the real killer. Went to Kearney about getting more LTS info. Hoped for a private lesson but no-one was around. Not an entirely wasted trip though. For example, I discovered it's a 90 minute drive. =( Yikes!! So I chatted w/Crystal (?) in the Storm office about some things, then headed for Hastings amd *missed* that exit and had to go on to Phillips, since the 2nd GI exit is being repaired or something. *Then* had to double back to GI in order to pick up the Hastings exit.

In Hastings, went to the Well-Read Book 1st anniversary. :) Took some in for trade, got a couple. And *luckily*, there was a hockey book!! Blue Fire, about St. L. Some very cool pics/info about Shanny, Hully and Oatesie. :D

Got home about 4:30 pm, just in time to eat some supper w/Mom. Donna H. called and yakked for awhile. Lucile D. called Mom as well.
