ON THE BACK BURNER

I am guessing that everyone, at least once, has driven to an airport and gotten lost following the directions . It happens. My grandson and I drove his mother, my daughter, to the airport for her return home. In spite of 3 of us coming down with Covid, ( i am not among them) we had a really nice visit.  After a round about drive at the airport, we found the International terminal and everything was good. I have to marvel at my grandson. His calm and driving skill during this on and off the highway and back to the airport was  phenomenal. His smart  new car said one thing and old fashioned road signs  gave another opinion.   We listened to the wrong directions. After saying good bye to my daughter and as long as Dixie had been walked and fed, and left at home with her blanket ,we aimed for the shopping mall. Hours later with shoes( not me) and clothes( not him) I ate my first Chipotle meal.  We had to eat in the car because the place was closing( this is the NW not NY or Chicago) . But it was so much better than I expected. Except for driving around the airport, and having to say good bye to my daughter, I'd do this day again.
