The Party You Are Trying To Reach

I won’t be writing today because I am going to see Disney on Ice in Green Bay, Wisconsin with my Granddaughter Jemma.

Later Gators!

No Sale

This morning my Granddaughter wanted a more full and detailed explanation for why I hung out in an airport in Texas where ‘ the planes can’t fly ‘ when I could have gone to an airport where the planes can fly and I could have  been there with her sooner.

I said I’ll be more careful next time and this is the look she gave me:

Today I tried  to my three year old granddaughter why I was not in Wisconsin yet.
It went about as well as you would expect:
” Where are you Lola?”
“I’m stuck in Texas, the planes can’t fly” I told her.
Jemma took a deep breath and then she came up with the perfect solution.
She was excited because she solved this horrible situation that I was in.
” Start walking” Jemma said.
( as a side note, I got a flight out of Texas the next day, Feb 24th  )

Well This Blows

Jack Torrance had the Overlook Hotel and I have Dallas Fort Worth International airport.

My story started with this text and as the airport emptied, only we ghosts remained.

There’s a chance, I will fly out after spending 24 hours here as this storm rages through this part of the country.

One chance.
