I Saw

There is so much of the world to see, so much just here in the USA.
I believe we truly forget what is out there around us.
This week we are on a trip with our youngest Daughter and her Husband.  The things I've seen and some of them not for the first time have reminded me of many things, but mostly how Greatful I am, and that my Blessings are in every moment I live.
I met Chum Lee from Pawn Stars TV show, he gave my grandson knuckles and an Autograph.  Inside Pawn Stars store, which is so very small,. After waiting in line to get in..... Lots of people pushing and wondering around, it's interesting how many languages you can hear in a small space.
I saw a man sitting in front of a store with a sign:  "Girlfriend locked in pay Toilet, need 50 cents".
I saw a man (who's face and hair looked like Santa Claus), he was standing next to his wheelchair, which was parked by a bank of newspaper boxes...holding out his hand accepting donations........   This one made me wonder.... At one time in his life What he must have done for work, or what his childhood was like, or how he was when he was young....
I saw a nice looking Lady, dressed normally nice (not overdone) pretty but not overly made up, she was going into a casino in LV, 15 minutes later I see her take $ from a very frumpy shorter, balding man as they walked down the sidewalk area.  She in her high heel tall black hooker boots, and he I. His old Velcro closed black tennis shoes, he had a limp to his walk.
I saw a short waddling man with taller than his forehead wicked eyebrows, and he talked in Donald Ducks  voice.
I've heard people (woman's voice) screaming "OH GOD" over and over from the room next door.
I met the nicest cab driver in Las Vegas, 2 minutes after the scam cab driver thought I was dumb. I wasn't paying $20 for a $7.00 fare.  The good guy got a $5.00 tip and he came back around the big block for me.
I've experienced a whole city a long a major freeway in a black out, in -15 temps.  But the flying J had power 1/2 mile down the road.

I've seen mountains, valleys, hills and dales, snow, and sun, horses, cattle, and coyotes and so much more.
Majestic sites all around!
Enough for now.
