Thursday January 21, 2010

Today is travel day. We get up at 0525 and get ready for our big trip to San Francisco. I take out Ms P so she can do her bidness and then get ready. The taxi picks us up at 0615 and we head to the airport. Since the Christmas Day airline attack in Detroit we do not know how long it will take to get through airport security. Surprise! Surprise! it took about 10 minutes.

The plane took off on schedule and we arrive at O’Hare on schedule. The gate for the plane to SF is located a short distance from where we got off. No long walk is needed. We get breakfast at McDonald’s. Our SF plane also leaves on time. It is a 777 and only about 40% full. It is a four hour trip to SF. When we arrive we have to take the tram to the car rental place. We pick up our car and head south on the 101. It is raining very hard on our trip south.

We call Debbie and tell her that we are heading for her place. We get to Debbie’s and it is still raining. I take a short nap and then we watch the SF news. The news is all about the damage caused by a week of rain. Debbie called and said it is raining too hard to go out to dinner. She stops at the grocery and got some wine and a precooked chicken. She also got some mashed potatoes and gravy. We nukes the potatoes and gravy and along with the wine and chicken had a great dinner.

Nancy and I were tired so after watching a little TV we headed to bed. I started reading an Elvis Cole book that I had downloaded to my Kindle. We did call Kim and found out that Ms P was enjoying herself.
