Dayton to Raleigh -Travel Day
Tuesday, October 18, 2005
Up at 5am, got about an hour of sleep. Shouldn't have even bothered. Down to the lobby and take the hotel shuttle with the airline flight crews. Check-in at the US Scareways counter, my bag is a couple of pounds over the limit, but dude lets me slide. Cool.
Off to the gate, now with an hour to kill. Find free internet and check email and surf till boarding time. No Starbuck's though.
Board my flight to Charlotte and fall asleep for over half the flight. I don't know why I didn't sleep more, probably just excited to get home. Arrive in Charlotte early, plenty of time to kill, stop at Starbuck's for a Chai on my way from Terminal E to Terminal C. Hang around the gate till boarding, I'm in the back of the plane to RDU. But I have a row all to myself, so I take the window and fall asleep for the long 34 minute flight to RDU.
Arrive at RDU and call Bob Davis, who is picking me up (Paige is at work). My bag comes off second (SCORE!!) and I'm out on the curb in 5min. While waiting I notice the guy next to me has embroidered Widespread Panic bags (roadie swag) and I ask him if he's in the business. He is a former production manager working for Clear Channel (yuk) now. Small world.
Well, I'm home now, so probably not too many updates to the blog. I don't think anyone cares about the misc chores I'll be doing at home. Off to Europe on Halloween, so I'll talk to you then...
