Waiting for Alaska Flight 624

Had a heck of a time getting out on the plane in the worst storm in the NW in 40 years! After a two hour trip from Salem to the Portland airport over icy washboard Highway 99 because the freeway was plugged with snow plows, the HUT Shuttle driver kindly unloaded my 6 duffels and 2 carry-ons and then helped pile them all onto a cart at the airport. Then, hitting a bump, I dumped the whole load in the middle of the street in front of a block long line of cars! Thanks to the generosity of two young guys who refused a tip, (it’s for our good karma, they said) I made it into the airport! A nice gentleman helped me lift my carry-on into the compartment above on the plane! Now my 42 year old son and his girlfriend are heaping loads of love and care onto me!

May you all enjoy similar care from complete strangers as well as family!

    Eunice,
    So glad to hear you will be in Las Vegas with Greg for Christmas. We spent Christmas in Denver and will head to Melissa’s Dec 28. Amy will be a sight for sore eyes, can’t wait to see her! Sounds like she and Josh are enjoying HK, she says it is China “light” compared to BJ. Happy Holidays, Debbie
