I thought I’d fly into Detroit for a quick visit on January 21st , but it took me 21 hours to get home-- longer than my visit to Mom’s house! It was great to see Mom, Kelly, Margaret, Chris, Brad, Austin, Steve, Kristin, Megan, (and Blanket), but I knew I was in for trouble when I left Saturday morning at 8:00 a.m. in a blizzard. After a 3 hour drive to the airport, the rental car’s front tires blew as I drove over the spikes that were frozen in the “up” position at the entrance. I ran to the gate to board Flight 338 only to sit 2 hours on the plane. We then got off the plane, waited two hours, and then got back on the plane and waited 3 more. Then, they cancelled the flight so I stood in customer service for an hour, got put on another flight which was cancelled because of mechanical problems. Finally, we left again at midnight on NW 331 and I arrived home at 1:30 a.m. (PST) ate some cheese, watched a TiVoed episode of Cheaters and went to bed. | .... | |
