The plane truth

Two more days till we go. I. Can’t. Wait.

The last time I flew home to Maryland in October was 17 years ago. I told my California friends I wanted to see real weather and I wanted to see the leaves turn while I was there.

Oh, those leaves turned, right on cue. As for the weather, we spent most of the flight with the seatbelt warning sign on, we were the last plane allowed to land at Dulles, we skidded sideways on the runway, and the tornado touched down right at that airport five minutes after we did. We sloshed through three or four inches of standing water all the way across the parking lot to the car. Good times. So, I’m trying not to say anything about weather or not I want a nice Eastern downpour this time. (Although, I really, really do.)

But I have been watching the weather reports back there, and may I respectfully request that you all ditch this crazy 88 degree nonsense right now? You know if we pack for that, it’ll snow.
