Good morning, Sagateers! It's taken me over 1 1/2 hours to catch up from last Friday on this thread; there were many interesting discussions. (Congrats to @donaldtoo on the new puppy! And, @Nemo14 my heart goes out to you regarding your mother. I went through something similar with both of my parents.)

Returned from Disney last night, and I am e x h a u s t e d. Had a great time, and the parks looked very good—and cleaner and better maintained than last year's visit. This is positive.

Epcot, in particular, looked gorgeous during the Flower & Garden Festival. (Side note: Can't tell you what a wonderful distraction it was to see tall, flower topiaries amongst the "tombstones" in front of Spaceship Earth. Yup, the "graveyard" is one of my pet peeves in Epcot . . .)

Weather only got hot during the afternoon; there was no humidity! I managed to luck out on this small window of gorgeous, sunny, dry weather.

Have a number of impressions to share from the past 5 days. I'll limit them to short snippets as I don't like to bore people with long trip threads. More later. :)

On the train headed home. Observation about Manhattan: the locals have become everything they hate about tourists. They now walk slowly and stare down (at their phones) instead of up (at the buildings). It's incredibly annoying.

That's the way people are here in downtown DC and even in my building. During the 5 minutes they're away from their desktop computer to get a cup of coffee they have to check their e-mail on their phone.

People block elevator doors, subway train doorways, sidewalks etc. to look down at their phone.

It's infuriating. Unplug for 5 seconds people!!! You're seriously not THAT important that people need your input within seconds.

I have an old friend from elementary and junior high school in Cali. comin' into town this weekend for a wedding. Haven't seen him since a trip back to Cali. that we did back in '87. He is now (and, actually has been for quite some time) a very rich video game developer. We are still trying to finalize plans for dinner. Should be an interesting visit. :)

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.
