Travel day!!! My final destination is Minneapolis, MN for the Desiring God conference. There are about 18 of us total that are going. I'm pretty excited though this first day isn't quite what I had hoped for. My step dad is a pilot for delta and is able to get me the "hook up" on a cheap ticket. The thing is, there's a catch... Stand by. My first flight was schduled to leave LAX at 3:30pm. I didn't make it. The second flight was scheduled to leave just 3 hours later. Didn't make it. Option three meant that I get a ride from LAX to John Wayne airport in Santa Ana and catch a red eye to Detroit and a super early flight to Minneapolis. So here I am at 4:50am at the Detroit airport. Tired and hopeful to make the next flight. I've never really been in an airport where it looked like a ghost town. And I've been in a lot of airports. So I guess that I'm not crazy, other people think this is early too. I'm sure the conference is going to be great but the hard part for me is being away from my girls for so long. I've only been away 1 night since Emery was born. That was tough and now I'll be gone 3 nights. But the trip is worth it and I'm looking forward to enjoying some great bible teaching with guys that I love. I'll keep you all updated. One love.
Bummer, it will be worth it once you get there. Wish I could have gone with you guys it should be awesome!
