It has been said, "The Worst Day of Retirement is Better Than the Best Day Working," and we concur.
After finally getting to the bottom of the continual on-again-off-again with flights west here at Travis, we have decided to postpone our trip until after Chase's baptism on 12 March near Philadelphia. The (so far) week-long delay, caused by runway repair, has made us reconsider the wisdom of traveling Space A to the bottom of the world when we have a hard stop coming up. Goldenbear70 also discovered there will likely be a delay on the return that could hold us in Japan for a week or more. Space A travel is not recommended when one has deadlines.
We have truly enjoyed the beautiful California weather, the base facilities here, meeting some interesting people, and seeing family along the way. We have salved our disappointment and frustration by walking, visiting the library (DVD rentals are $0 there!), reading, and relaxing. Postponing our trip to Australia will mean we will miss Aunt Muriel's 94th birthday party, but instead we will arrive in time for Auntie Val's and Cousin Lynn's birthdays, and the weather Down Under should be milder.
Monday we expect will find us back in Charleston, and everyone knows "nothin' could be finah."
