I actually spoke only to my son Stone's brother who was sitting next to me at the commencement exercise. We are fond of each other as when I went to pick Stone up as a child from his mother's house, I sometimes would take him, Tiger Current, with us also. My trip to Las Vegas by Amtrack from Muirsville was perfect. Amtrack is a good way to travel. They are totally organized, yet familiar at the same time. There is a family mode to traveling with Amtrack. The weather was comfortable. Although it was 89 at the sports arena where Stone's graduation was held. I am glad I didn't have to wear a gown; and probably only 10% of the men were wearing jackets. I enjoyed the cool desert wind that blew both across Stone's patio at night--and it blew quite a bit inside his house, also! The wind I enjoyed on his patio was invigorating but that same movement of air inside in his living room made it sometimes difficult to get a word in edgewise. I must say that my son Stone, and his wife (whom I have consistently liked), treated me beautifully. Even though--in order to make my trip efficiently I obtained reservations and what I have discovered now that I am back is that some still remain--I am totally up from my journey....
