Hopefully by this time tomorrow, I’ll be zipping my way through West Virginia on schedule. Yesterday’s train hasn’t made it to Chicago yet. It’s 9 hours late. And the train to LA is long gone. There is supposed to be a 3 ½ hour layover in Chicago. If I miss the train, I’ll take a plane. Not a problem.
I am taking warm clothes because getting “stuck” somewhere cold is a non-trivial possibility. Also taking some granola bars.
Pretty sure I’ll not be able to post anything tomorrow evening. There is lots of no cell-service space on this trip.
OOPS, just got a text telling me that I was needed at dinner early and in a “nicer clothes” venue. Notice, nicer clothes. Not nicer food.
Well, I was wrong. The food and the company were both excellent. The text actually said “… put asses in the other 2 seats by 5:15”.
