Going Home

It is not often that one gets to be a tourist in his or her very own home town. Most of the time we take the town that we live in for granted and just do not do the touristy things. A friend of mine moved to London and he swore that they (him and his wife) would do something every single week and weekend in or around London and of course they did not. It is not an uncommon thing. M and I wrote a list long ago of things that we would like to do in Uppsala. Only ten things are on the list (which was written several years ago), but we have only done one thing off the list.

So this is what I have done. We will be going back to the Texas to show off Z for the first time. We (meaning me) have written an extensive list of things that we need to do (renew license), should do (clean out all of my crap) and things we would like to do (things to see, places to go, food to eat). We are going to be tourists in a familiar place.

Important thing to note, some items on the list are there not because I think that we actually have a chance at doing them (Big Bend National Park), but because eventually we would like to do them.
