Six Flags? Sure why not
As you, my faithful reader, know, I will be going to California this weekend for my high school reunion. Well I was talking to Caitlin (best friend in Arizona...the one I had to take all the Slinky photos for) and trying to convince her to drive out to California to visit as well. Turns out, she already had plans to be in California! She and her friend Amber are going to be at Six Flags. So, I talked to Emily and we will be going to Six Flags as well! I get to see BOTH my best friends! Fantastic!

non-pilgrimage related post
And now for a non-pilgrimage related post!
I tried booking my flight today to San Fran (for a conference) in November using my Delta points...but I didn't have enough. :-( So I booked my flight to Baltimore in October for my cousin's wedding instead! :-) Gotta love free flights!
And speaking of free flights (because my dad let me use his frequent flyer miles for this trip)...I leave in a few weeks for California for my 10 year high school reunion! I bought a dress today for it. I'm very excited to see Emily (and of course all my old Hawk buddies). We are going to go to the Harvey's (the makers of my seatbelt bags) store!
I also was doing some browsing on the net and found a pretty decent price (under $200 if you would believe) for a ticket to Arizona in September for David's wedding. So I might actually be able to go. But it would be a quick (Friday through Sunday) trip and would likely not get to see as many people as I would like.
On a completely unrelated (non-travel related) note...both cats were in the window seat yesterday with no arguments. Crazy.
