Prompt: Use these words in a story, poem, or rant: mighty, awesome, arch, climax, east, fiberglass.(BCoFs)

Have you ever been to a historical event and dress the part of the time era? If not, would you like to? (BC)

Ah..this brings back memories. I never went to a historical event in my life; I think it’s very American to do so.

So when I went to your mighty state I dressed up as a revolver trigger-happy hero from the Mid West in Durango, Colorado. Actually, come to think of it was a postal service man from those days…but still! *Smile* I felt like I was in a western, it was really, really awesome. We went in this very small shop on the main street of Durango. They had these huge piles and cupboards full of clothing from the latter half of 19th century. I felt like I was in a candy shop with all those beautiful dresses and frogs that I saw in westerns. So we dressed up!

I am the one on the left; the smiling lady is my aunt with whom I traveled in this holiday back in 2004. Oops, it’s been already 12 years but I can still remember like it was yesterday. We went for 4 weeks. I loved the United States and was TOTALLY head over heels in love with the state of Colorado. I wished I’d stay there. At one point in my life I was so ready to seriously think about moving to the States, but life got in the way and I never did. Regrettably so.

My next trip will be to the east, to New York in spring of 2017. What a high to go there, what a climax that will be. I can’t wait. In the meantime I can go to the restaurant with the arches, Mc D. to sniff up the American atmosphere.

That leaves me with the word fiberglass of which I have no use of. *Smile*

War Chest Wednesday! A prompt from a previous challenger...
You're with your significant other and a song comes on that reminds you of an ex. What do you do?

I would do nothing. Not every thought has to be shared and vented with the significant other. That’s probably one of the reasons I am on my own these days. I am not the ‘oh…I want to share everything with my hubby’ kinda girl, I am somewhat private. Some thoughts are my own and nobody else’s. In this case, since I am with the one I love at the moment there is also no need to remind him of a totally forgotten ex from the past. So I would leave it at just that: a nice memory.
