And on the seventh day, God created IMAX

Still no pictures for you. I took some today, but I'm too tired and mellow to mess with them tonight. A margarita or two might have contributed to my mellowtudinousness. You know what she is, no doubt about it, she's a bad bad girlfriend blogger!

It was a fab day with my hubby and our pal Mark! The Trek exhibit was so cool, and wait till you see the picture of us on the bridge of the Enterprise...! I think my favorite was the Guardian of Forever, a full-size replica of the gateway to yesterday from my all-time favorite episode, "The City on the Edge of Forever." (Jim has to let Joan Collins die in order to preserve his and the earth's future. Now that I think about it, why was that such a hard decision?) Both Ken and I stepped through the portal, and we should be getting back to normal soon. (Why are you laughing? I don't see what's so funny. Jeez.) I'd be lying if I said that I didn't get teary-eyed seeing the Guardian. After the exhibit, we walked a few blocks to the Majestic, where we had some cool amber beverages outside on their patio (because it was a beautimous day!) and got to talk "up close and personal." (Get that reference, Mark?) Then we made our way back to the Science Center, because we had tickets for the 4:30 showing of the new "Star Trek" movie at...get this...their IMAX THEATER! Yes, we got to see it on an IMAX screen, and man, did that ever make my day!

After the movie we went to Mexican Town to Mark's favorite Mexican restaurant, and it was some of the best Mexican food I've ever had. The chunky beef burrito was SO good. We had so much fun talking with Mark, and he's a total peach. We are definitely batting a thousand when it comes to meeting up with blogger friends--first Marty, and then Mark. We hope to continue our winning streak, and a name starting with M is not a requirement...but we're coming for you, Myraaaa...ha!

We're planning on a visit to the Astoria bakery with Mark tomorrow morning, and then Ken and I hope to do some picture-taking before we head to Monroe to see Bill and Mary Sue. Got a few pictures today of the old train depot, but I'd love to get some more. We'll see what we can scare up tomorrow. A great day in Motown! As much as I love the quiet and solitude of Nutwood, I still love being in a city once in a while. It's a whole different experience, and I had a great time today just walking in midtown.

More soon!
