Vacation finale

One thing that I enjoy about smaller airports is that they are not bitches about internet. The Flint airport and the Wichita airport offer free high speed internet. I don't understand the point of charging people to use the internet when you are in a place of business. I know the idea is to make a living by earning money, but come on...

The free internet helps to pass the time for several reasons. I haven't been able to check my email since the fourth. Not to worry, there wasn't anything important in it. I get to do the fun 'I am at such and such an airport waiting for my flight' status on Facebook, because everyone needs to know. It allows me to update my podcasts that are fun and interesting (look up The Memory Palace on itunes) or more serious. And, I get to do this. I do have another post set up for the Cheap Beer Experiment, but I do not have the cord for the pictures that I took of the beer (it was forgotten in my wife's tote bag).

I have quite a long journey ahead of me and partly behind me. We left the cabin this morning about eleven o'clock and arrived at the airport close to three thirty. My brother dropped me off and I got through security quickly (another perk of small airports). I had time to watch the last inning of the Tigers Twins game (good guys won). The early part was the easy part, it was just a car ride. I fly for two hours to Atlanta and then another two hours to Wichita, with only forty five minutes in between flights. I enjoy having an hour or two for a layover. It gives me time to stretch my legs and walk around and people watch. Direct flights are not my friend. We had a direct flight once that was to Detroit. By the end, my legs and back were both screaming in agony because I get crammed into the small seats on the plane. Oh the perils of being over six feet tall.

The vacation rundown is on it's way (more than likely posted tomorrow)
