I'm excited. I can't wait until we get to Chicago. We are going to the Field Museum this weekend to see the King Tut exhibit. It's the closest I'll prolly ever get to Egypt so I'm totally wired. I wanted to be an Egyptologist when I was a kid. I can even read some heiroglyphs. I know quite a few of the ancient Egyptian myths about Isis, Osiris, Horus and the rest. So, let's just leave it at that I'm very excited.

On a down note, Wye Supply closed. Wye supply was an old-time general store. I remember years ago skipping school and some friends took me there for the first time. The old dude who owned the store stocked all types of cast iron pots, pans, and stuff I wasn't sure what it was. He had tin stoves and carried seed in bulk and just had a bit of everything. A few years back the original building burned and they moved over to a building next to the old one. I didn't realize they had closed till mom said something about it the other day. She said the old man had died so she didn't know if the store was still open so I went by to check. It's closed. I was very disappointed. You don't find stores like that anymore. Sad even. Like when our drive in closed down a few years ago. The old lady who ran it died and her daughter didn't want to mess with it and sold it. I like some of the changes that have happened in my lifetime. Like computers and the internet, but the loss of things like the drive in and Wye Supply sucks.
