Caveat: Bulgogi in Phoenix

Dateline: Phoenix

Today was my nephew Jameson's first day of sixth grade. So he got to choose the menu for dinner. Guess what we had? Bulgogi – my sister cooked it, from scratch. She's pretty good at Korean cooking.

Phoneix is hot. It was 112 F (45 C) when I drove in at 5 pm today.

Caveat: $77.77

Dateline: Upland, California & I-10 to Phoenix

I took off to drive to Phoenix, today. I stopped for gas as the tank was nearing empty. It's a big truck. It cost me $77.77 to fill it. That seems like a lot – compared to $30 tanks in Minnesota with the rental car. But then I reflected that the same tank would cost, hmm, maybe ₩170,000 to fill in Korea, which is about $150, or a bit less.

Still, it's a lot. But I'm going to visit my sister.

Here's a view of San Jacinto Mountain (I think that's it) near Palm Springs at a rest area off the 10.

Lastly, not in chronological order, a view from my dad's front porch, last night, at twilight.
