MN morning from a NEW HOTEL

YEP
there is an
AMUSEMENT PARK
INSIDE
THE
MALL OF AMERICA@!!
wow
what a huge I mean HUGE
place
So after a day of speaking to some fantastic folks
at the Radisson for the day there in Roseville
the car arrived and took me
to here
at the
Brand spanking new
Best Western PLUS Bloomington
where I received a lovely greeting
by
Claire
at the front desk for check-in
What a beautiful lobby indeed
and what a lovely person to check me in
and tell me of all I needed to know
along with her friendliness to provide for me during my stay!
AND
then
she tells me since only across the street I definately should go to
THE MALL OF AMERICA
and
after all since the hotel is so new the restaurant is not yet open
but she could give me menus for room service!
MALL OF AMERICA
HAS AN AMUSEMENT PARK AND SEA AQUARIUM INSIDE?

The guy who runs the shuttle was so nice
at the desk as well offering to drive me as well,
they both tempted me with freshly baked cookies that sat nearby and I swear I thought I saw cookie
dust on his cheeks!

SO
I ventured to that huge place
seems like hours later
I was sitting at
BUBBA GUMPS
for a shrimp dinner
and then laughing through the little shop as I recalled
Godson as a little one laying in the floor and telling us the words of the movie about a second before Forrest would say them!
I ended up buying a few things and talking to the owner
about the
fantastic hotel
I am staying in
"5 STar*
and she gave me a little
bag
like a back pac
to carry my loot
that says
"MAMA SAYS I'M SPECIAL"


hahaha

Tonight I fly home to Tampa midight!
Today?
Here in MN
folks are getting out their flip flops
goin to hit 40degrees
the weatherman says,
so
maybe they will even show up in a few in shorts!

Wherever you are
Make it the best YOU are able
KNowing you are in command
of your brain
and have the ability to
CHOOSE

Walk In Beauty,
DRSES

Love me some Bubba Forrest Gump. I bet there was not many shrimp left after DRSES. finished her meal and then ice cream. You need to hurry home. I have always wanted to go to Hawaii, that has been my dream. This morning I woke up to the news that a sunami has hit Hawaii, Honolulu and other places. Earth quake in Japan. 8.9, what a disaster. I immediately called my friend and told her I was going back to bed, too much heartache, sadness and concern for the people who live in these places. May God Bless them and keep them. My heart aches for all affected, What is happening in our World? We must pray and pray hard for all of the people. We pray each day for our policemen and police women. For our service men and their families. Keep them safe and send them home to us soon. We pray for all people all over the world. Come home soon DRSES. God Bless the USA
