    At any moment you must be prepared to give up who you are today for who you could become tomorrow.

    Actually, as we were traveling down, we encountered a horrendous windstorm in the high desert. It pushed us towards Palm Springs with tail winds of 65 to 70 miles per hour (it also broke the hinge on my car door when we got out for that Joshua tree picture). Trees, power lines and various debris were spread all over town when we arrived.

    All because "The Powers That Be" wanted to ensure we arrived quickly, I'm sure.

    Be well,
