Monday night – no need for plan C !

So.. we were counting on Gabes passport to come in time for me to make my 4PM flight…

and… (drum role…)

As I drove to the Postoffice to be there when it opend, I got a tesxt message that the package was there !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So were on plan B. .I zoomed home.. got my last stuff together.. And said good bye to Diane and Nova..

At two and a half weeks this is going to be one of the longest ties I’ve ever been away from diane.. I think only the time on the Colony was longer. Its two and a half because I’m taking my Mom down to Houston to see Bly wheni come back from Germany . I miss diane so much when we’re apart..

I think thas pretty nice to feel that way after 44 year s<3

I got to the airport with the knowledge that the entire east coast was getting slammed with the biggest storm of the season.. and that’s saying something after this particular winter..

check out this

luckily we were north of the storm and so were both of my planes on the way to MSP..

Whiel waiting for the plane I was able to talk to Billy agin. Each time he sounds more alert and more himself.. I can wait to see him.. tehyre moving him out of the ICU soe he will be able to have vistors starting this week (I think)

I had a roll aboard with me.. and I always forget when I have carry on bags.. so I tied my beta badge around my wrist so I wound forget.. they ended up checking my roll aboard, which left me wondering what I d forgot when I stopped in Chicago

The flights were uneventfull. A slight edelay on my flight rom Chcago to MSP.. but otherwise peaceful

I got to start thinking abot the adventure that gabe .. and I were on..

Nce to see the lake completely frozen oer.. first time in 7 years !!!

So.. here we go.. or at least here I go. Into the wild blue yonder !

more from the road

nite all, nite sam
