Setting in CA Long Beach airport.. Beautiful. My planning worked. Flying out to Ca first and then back to SL was to avoid any delays -in Atlanta just overr 2000 flights cancelled already -HA. The only problem is that I didnt get a window seat -note: if you dont get a seat assigned when you make a reservation -your're setting in the middle... the lady setting in the window seat never opened the window - what a waste. I snookered a window seat on to SL so I will play my part... Man - leaving DC at noon and in Ca at 3:30...what would the pioneers say.... man...
