Jeez did you do that again? I was sure you were just teasing and were all actually flying in to Jersey to see me!

Anyhoo have a good one and take loads of notes.

Did the "Summit Lovers Reunion Tour" provide entertainment for the attendees?

I think the original chair is up with the 'Big Chair in the Sky'. However, a suitable replacement was found in KC. Pictures to follow.

Flight cancelled into Dulles this morning. Taking the scenic route home, via Denver and Chicago. Only 6 hours and 1300 miles out of my way.

At least they gave me first class on two of the flights. Those reclining seats are great....

Dammit Greg. I won't complain about taking over an hour to get through the security line at the airport (15 minutes max according to Nick) or the slightly overweight woman that had her damn elbow stuck in my ribcage part of the other flight. Who knew that I would get to use one if Jamie's martial arts moves from the class so soon.

At least you're not spending the night in Detroit.

Thought I'd be spending the night in Chicago after they decided to start changing out the plane's tires like we were in a NASCAR pit stop. If only I knew someone in Chicago that I wanted to spend time with.

Man, you have bad luck getting home from this thing .... it's becoming a summit tradition. Glad you got home safely in the end, bro.

With a good pit crew, you'd only have to spend 13 seconds with them.

Should have flown in/out of Bradley with me ... we landed 10 minutes early, and we flew over my house (which was very cool)!!

Uneventful flights back to So Cal. After all that eating, it was good thinking on the part of the airline to give Gal a seatbelt extender for her seat.

I wonder if Nick arranged that like he arranged the airport wheelchairs for Lou and JP...
