puberty blockers to those under 16 or even 18 and i think that is a failure of the court and of the effort to protect children posted by tracy coyle at 7 00 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest friday september 11 2020 september 11 2001 in memoriam barbara bobbi arestegui posted annually on 9 11 since 2006 i ve missed a few my apologies to bobbi september 11 2001 7 59am united flight 11 leaves boston s logan airport in just a few short minutes barbara bobbi arestegui 38 of marstons mills massachusetts would be one of the first casualties of that day assigned to the first class cabin bobbi and fellow attendant karen martin were attacked shortly after takeoff in less than 40 minutes the rest of the crew and passengers of flight 11 died in the north tower of the world trade center there are no public posts from friends or family on bobbi two stories were published about her and her boyfriend wayne from them the information below is shared the first thing i noticed of course was that she is absolutely beautiful he said we had a nice talk probably for about 15 minutes i asked her if it would be possible to get her phone number she told him sternly no i don t give out my home number wayne shrugged his shoulders and walked away thinking i gave it my best shot she stopped him with one word but she said he turned i ll give it to you she was living in washington d c the middle of five girls from a california family with spanish basque roots two of the girls would join the tight knit community of flight attendants her typical schedule was three or four days on followed by three or four days home she turned their house into a cozy retreat with a garden out back they made a habit of walking the cranberry bogs picking blueberries and having breakfast at the mills restaurant she loved to cook she dreamed of attending culinary school bobbi picked up three stray and abused cats olive bruiser and pumpkin she d loved animals since she was a kid in hawthorne a suburb of los angeles she was a gentle person yet tough when she needed to be said rosie arestegui who gave her daughter barbara the nickname bobbi she knew her job so well she could do two or three people s work plus hers and it would be done perfectly colleagues of bobbi repeated that praise when wayne met them in boston on friday he talked with more than 50 people who knew his girlfriend through work they remembered her as energetic a huge heart in a 5 foot 3 inch frame bobbi was not scheduled to work flight 11 that day but she had accepted extra flights she was saving up her earned vacation to take a trip with wayne at the end of september she got up about 2 30 that morning and within a few hours was out the door usually she wakes me up when she leaves she didn t wake me up this time he said but she did keep another of their rituals at 6 45 a m he got a phone call from the airport she told me that she was just about to board she was

texas the setup i needed to get to south central texas to visit with economic development people in anticipation that seethuma s lab would likely be sited somewhere around houston first stop though was dallas i decided on the southern route as it would give me the most interstate driving going through fort worth and dallas during rush hour was going to slow me a little at the end of the day i was here to meet nephew erik but he was tied up with work until the late evening so we planned on getting together for breakfast before i turned south the plains of texas offer about the same as new mexico ie not much only one view was worth it and it only lasted a few moments coming out of the high plains of western texas to the plains of central texas east of abilene trust me it wasn t worth the wait i m sure you can see the difference not there is one thing that i have seen a lot of on this first couple of days that i would see a lot more of wind farms lots of wind farms and with very few exceptions more than 3 4ths of those turbines were not moving blame the weather blame the time of year but i saw a lot more statues than moving generators i pulled into dallas just about 7pm and settled in after a burger and a fanta day 3 is done posted by tracy coyle at 4 21 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest day 2 a brief pause i knew before i got to clovis that christopher rosann and the girls were going to still be there visiting his parents i had surprised chris and family in vegas earlier in the month on their way to clovis but i was going to enjoy a slightly longer visit with them here i needed to spend time with steve to discuss family business but also to reset the clock for the rest of the trip a sequence of events that would put me in atlanta at the right time after a good night s sleep to recover from the previous 36 hours bacon and eggs cooked by steve s wife marietta along with some pancakes hit the spot steve and chris were already at work on the back porch when i finished breakfast we spent the next several hours basically picking up talking where we left off the night before but we had a whole day and i suggested rosann and i take the girls to the mall and wander for a while clovis is not a big town it is a military town but cannon afb is kind of a backwoods base and during the heat of the summer people have a tendency to stay indoors it s mall is small and not well endowed still it offered a few places to stick a head into after we got some drinks at sonic and headed to a park to enjoy the afternoon a little bit of watching the ducks and geese and people fishing in 90 weather and we were ready to go back for some dinner the plan for the evening was a rematch of the miniature golf round we had in las vegas but afternoon thunderstorms are common on the plains and clovis is close enough to spawn it s share by early dusk we were surrounded by nature s light shows and fortunately we got our round in while also getting some go cart time in ok i didn t race the go carts but the rest did while the surrounding areas were dealing with flooding and violent storms we were in the eye of the storms and enjoying a warm humid summer evening with a nice breeze if you remember the scene from twister where they were near a drive in theatre getting drinks then you will get an idea of what we were dealing with minus the tornado crashing the party it was an enjoyable visit and time with family tomorrow back on the road day 2 is done posted by tracy coyle at 3 46 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday august 19 2019 day 1 the starting gun crossing the desert southwest during the day in the summer is an exercise in man machine balance the road surface can be hot enough to cook food on and tires can actually get softer as you travel especially at speeds over 70mph and the sun beating on windows can challenge even the best air conditioning so i cheat i make the first day of travel east at night now the air temperatures don t moderate that much during the peak of the summer but surfaces tend to let off their heat quickly making it a little easier on the vehicle performance i got up as usual and planned on a good nap late in the afternoon i left my packing for today because i knew it wouldn t take long except well it did i started thinking of temperatures and potential weather changes and then tried to minimize the amount of clothes for each potential situation over the years of traveling with cj and victoria we had a pretty good system one big suitcase for victoria and me a small suitcase for cj and a bag with all the toiletries a snack bag rounded out our needs i was only 1 2 way done packing and the big suitcase was full as was the small one i thought i had a garment bag but had to borrow one for my dresses just 3 and suits but the rucksack bag that had nothing but shoes and purses was just nuts sigh this wasn t going well adding makeup and jewelry and toiletries and since i was driving a makeup mirror and light added two more bags by the time i was done two suitcases garment bag three overnight bags a rucksack bag a book bag my laptop and two pillows i needed skycap just to get everything to the car unfortunately work beckoned and i spent 2 5 hours getting petitions ready that i had not planned on doing along with packing and getting the car ready it was already 5pm and i really needed a shower i tried to relax in my chair but if i was leaving by 7pm i didn t really leave myself any time for a good nap i ended up resting but not actually sleeping for 45 minutes before getting up and getting myself ready 7pm came and went with me still sitting in lemon grove i kept looking at the map of the first leg and realized i was going to be getting to las cruces really early i had touched bases with deanna to have breakfast but if i left at 7pm i d be getting to lc around 6am so i ordered a couple of pizzas for me to have something to eat and to treat my neighbors for the loaning of the garment bag that one of them had to go to their storage unit to dig out i ate half a pizza i finally hit the road by 8pm with a full stomach and tank of gas oh and a large fanta orange from mcdonalds that orange was going to be a permanent companion on this trip but i did have my water bottle full and available too trip counter set to 0 interstate 8 just a short jaunt away and into the mountains i plunged it would be dark by the time i got over them and faced the desert it was in the 90s today in lemon grove but here at 9 30pm it was 105 the temperature would not drop below 100 for the next 6 hours traveling across the desert at night is not much different if cooler than doing it during the day there is nothing to see except vast expanses of barren mountains and scrub brush covered sand hundreds of miles of the same scenes now if you ve never been to the desert seeing it for the first time is interesting i even recommend doing it during the day during the summer get somewhere in the middle of it and get off at an exit ramp there are plenty going to no where and step out of your air conditioned car it s a dry heat for people used to humidity it will literally shock you my response to its a dry heat is to suggest sticking your head into an oven it s a dry heat too well if the temp is 110 and the sun is shining you ll get a good feel for the next turkey you stick in that well prepared oven traveling alone on empty stretches of desert highway seems to scare some people i find it relaxing no music or radio just relax and enjoy the silence as silent as your car is at 75mph lest you think there is nothing to see if you travel during the day at least via i 8 there is a place in the desert where it is not brown and shades of sand we are so rich we plant crops in the desert once i passed gila bend i would be covering new ground for me normally i would cut north at gila and head for phoenix before heading even further north to flagstaff before heading further east but shortly i 8 would merge with i 10 i 10 and i would cover lots of new ground on this trip but only in segments tuscon was the first stop for gas i wasn t going to need it but from tuscon to las cruces in the middle of the night my options for gas were going to be limited a full tank in tuscon was going to get me to las cruces and beyond about 100 miles west of las cruces i realized i was still going to be really early i had made good time and figured this was a good opportunity to take that nap i had missed all day friday i pulled off and took a good hour nap it had finally dropped below 100 and was in the low 90s with the breeze and the windows open it was comfortable enough adding in the time change to mountain and i pulled into las cruces at 7 30a 8 30a local i woke deanna up and got her suggestion for where to meet into maps and plugged into the shed like most neighborhood places it is not a tourist s place deanna came in and we settled into catching up for some reason i thought her sister michelle was in clovis but nope she was in las cruces too but was working and we couldn t see each other but i would get a chance to see her shop turned out michelle was at the shop when we stopped by and i got a tour and a short chance to catch up with her while i was saying my goodbyes their brother christopher called me i left the girls and by 10a i was back on the road talking to chris and off i 10 headed for my first stop clovis nm forty five minutes later chris was off the phone and i needed to stop in alamogordo i was getting too sleepy to keep going so i pulled into a parking lot and crashed for 45 minutes long stretches of nothing were now getting to me even if the nothing was actually something i wasn t going to need gas before getting to clovis but i was going to be under 100 miles left in the tank exactly how much i would have left was going to be an issue turned out that i got the low fuel warning just 5 miles outside of town the issue was i didn t remember steve s address my brother in clovis whom i kinda just assumed i could crash with and my phone had less than 5 battery i waited til i go into town before calling and he told me to go to 21st and turn phone died he wasn t home and figured where i was approximately and got close enough to watch the road for me we saw each other about the same moment and i followed him the rest of the way to his place oh i would have turned the wrong way it would be the 2nd longest distance day of travel but at the time i figured it to be the longest time 995 miles from my house to steve s it had been 21 5 hours since i d left lemon grove day 1 done posted by tracy coyle at 1 20 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest sunday august 18 2019 day 19 the search for victoria s final resting place waking up in kearney the sun was shining but the haze of humidity made it look like fog had just burned off i dressed and packed quickly this was going to be a big day of driving i didn t get to north platte as planned but was surprised how close to denver i was i had planned to reach denver by lunchtime and even stopping short of north platte was not going to harm that plan i got a sausage biscuit milk and a fanta and was on the road by 8 15a i looked at the mileage and figured on lunch and gas in denver i wanted a full tank heading into the mountains as noted neb...
