Holland

I went to walk at Pecos today. While parking I saw a car from Michigan and thought it would be funny if they were from Holland Michigan. Well, it turned out that we were leaving at the same time and as I pulled past them I asked them if they were from Holland. With a heavy Dutch accent they asked how I knew. It turns out the Michigan car was a rental and they were from the Netherlands. We chatted for a while before I left. They were doing Route 66 and were headed for Las Vegas, NV for a reunion over the weekend.

I had a nice walk there this morning. Took it slow and made 2 trips around the place without stopping or gasping for air. Once I get used to doing it again I’ll pick up the pace. Last year, when I finally quit because of the wind, I was doing the 1.2 miles in 15 minutes and I would usually do the second lap in 18 minutes. I’m going to try to get to that again.

While typing up the above, I got a call from the district attorney’s office about Romero. There’s a plea deal in the works where he pleads guilty to the armed robbery with a maximum sentence of 9 years, with the actual time being up the the judge. I told the lady that I don’t care what time he gets as long as he gets drug treatment with his time. They will be checking with the John and the lady that Romero pointed the gun at too, but I have no control over what they wish.

Once this is settled, I’m supposed to get my gun back.
