Chicago to Seattle!
This morning will begin with an 0530 wake up (0330 PDT) and a flight back to Seattle. A fabulous time had by all in the Windy City! And an upgrade to First Class for my birthday present.
Derby Day at Arlington Park
we met a great group of people!
What were the odds that we would be seated with a woman working on her dissertation for her PhD in Leadership? Another couple who is truly enjoying the journey, as they are traveling the US visiting every state! And the twin sisters, who were not originally at our table, but through another twist of fate ended up joining the group and so glad they did. Gio taught me the art of celebrating the hat!
And then off to Aviation Universe for a talk, book signing, pizza, and the simple net radio broadcast. What a fun night with the great folks at Aviation Universe, and as always, chatting with Marc at Simple Flight Radio was a blast!
It's officially my birthday and time for a nap before I fly. So for all... remember life is short, maybe we should learn to eat the cake first!
Enjoy the Journey!

What a great weekend! But didn't you fly back on the wrong airline? :)
ReplyDeleteYes, it was a great weekend! Alaska is a perfect airline from Chicago to Seattle. Non-stop no less! And.... they even like when I post photos of their planes!
