Hi, here, alive.

Made it to Buffalo Niagara Airport yesterday after spending several hrs. in Dulles. Have determined that the US was not trying to keep me in, neither was Canada trying to keep me out; it's just that Dulles SUCKS, and the suction was keeping multiple airplanes (incl. mine) on the ground. 'Maintenance', they said, but three airprlanes all needing 'maintenance' to the point where they had to send for replacement planes? I think not. Dulles sucks, and they sucked the Savannah plane, the Buffalo plane, and the State College, PA plane to the ground to the point where they couldn't take off.

Am in Canada now. Am doing v. well. [livejournal.com profile] mountainspeak and I are safely ensconced in a very nice hostel in Niagara Falls. I am keeping the promise I made to write more stuff for the [livejournal.com profile] sgt_preston journal every day but right now I cannot upload any of it so oh well. Will do that later.

All should be well, will report on interesting things that have happened later. Ta!

On behalf of Canada ...

I apologize for the fact that in preparation for a visit, it started snowing and temperature dropping back to 'normal' as of last night.

(it was nice and warm for this time of year too ...)

Hopefully you don't get snowed on too much & have a nice time over there in Niagara! :)

Now I feel better about taking the train and not the plane yesterday, as I would have been passing through Dulles.

On the other hand, the possibility of seeing you and boggling would have amused me.
