Title: Been away for a few days..
Post by: bubba on February 24, 2008, 10:48:06 am
I had a quick business trip to Vegas on Thursday. I was supposed to be in on Thurs, and out on Friday early AM. I had a helper with me on this trip because my calf muscle is still not right. The trip was so short I didn't even bring my laptop. My wife ended up checking our flight status on Friday morning, and they canceled my flight and rescheduled it for Monday morning.. NY/NJ had its first major snowstorm of course.. We ended up going to the airport on Friday morning to try to get a different flight. Continental had the worst customer service and were less than helpful. I ended up going to US Air and they were incredibly helpful. Unfortunately, all flights into the NY area were shot or priced through the roof. We ended up flying into Pittsburgh and driving home from there. We landed in Pit at 7:00 on Sat night. Grabbed a rental and started driving. Its about a 400 mile ride. We reached my house about 12:30 am. My helper lives about 15 min past me so he dropped me off a took the car home.

Vegas is an awesome city and not many better places to get stranded. But we were both ready to just get home. Now its time to go play in the snow  :biggrin:
