fair posted by marie in michigan at 1 03 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday august 01 2006 will this trip ever end i just returned from a trip to philadelphia to visit my mom and attend her 89 th birthday party the actual visit went very well the party was a success and i got to see friends and relatives see next entry about the party but there is always a but getting there and back was awful i flew from flint to atlanta i booked the flights so long ago that i don t remember my rationale for doing that except it must have saved me flint to atlanta went just fine the flight from atlanta to philadelphia was delayed 2 hours a sign of things to come so it was very late when i arrived at my brother s house where i was staying i got there on sat night he left for a conference on mon morning i spent wednesday with my friend mary and her daughter summer first we met at bob evans for a late breakfast and then went to the delaware state fair mary entered numerous crocheted items and won gobs of blue ribbons some 2 nd place ribbons and a 3 rd place ribbon and this was the first time she ever entered items in the fair having received things from her i can vouch for the judges she does wonderful work and almost all of it is done in thread she even received an award for the best entry at the fair which included a presentation by delaware s governor here are some pictures of a few of her winning entries our mutual friend sherrie did a great job telling about mary s fair experience you can read about it on her blog there is a link in the above message thanks sherrie after ohhing and ahhing over her work we walked around the fair grounds rode on the ferris wheel played a shooting game with water mary won a stuffed seal which she gave to me and i gave to my grandson cory summer played a dart and balloon game and won a cute stuffed lady bug we went into where the slot machines were but didn t bother wasting our coins it was very hot we summer and i shared a fried snicker s candy bar very yum after leaving the fair we went to a great seafood place where we had steamed crabs and shrimp it was a very casual place my kind of restaurant where they covered the table with a large piece of brown paper and served the food in plastic bowls i needed a refresher course on how to pull apart the crabs i ve been gone from the east coast for over 30 years they were sooo good each time i get together with mary we have such a great time we have already planned what we are going to do the next time i am in the area the next day was not so much fun kelly was arriving from boise idaho with 2 of her kids 4 yr old elise and 1 yr old cory she was surprising her grandmother who did not know they were coming she was due to arrive at the phila airport at 10 45 p m i checked with the airlines before going and saw a delay every time i checked the delay was later finally at 11 30 p m she called her flight went from boise to chicago she called from chicago there were many storms in the area and they circled and circled and circled chicago and finally went to cedar rapids iowa to get more fuel they sat on the ground there for 2 hours once in chicago they kept delaying take off then they cancelled the flight everyone was lined up to get another flight a united airlines person felt sorry for her with the 2 kids and brought her into the vip room where she tried to help find her a flight the next flight they could get her on to phila was on sunday the birthday party was on sat so that didn t work they found a flight to laguardia airport in ny long island that was getting ready to depart she took it and i then had to drive there to get them i didn t even know how to get there from phila thank goodness for map quest off i went in the midst of heavy rain and thunderstorms via the nj turnpike which had numerous sections of the highway that were semi flooded made for very slow driving and lots of trucks i kept stopping at rest areas to make sure i knew where to get off etc i made it through the lincoln tunnel ok but then i made a wrong turn and ended up in the theater district of nyc found a policeman who directed me to the midtown tunnel and i was ok until i made another wrong turn by this time kelly was calling me via the cell phone asking where i was wandering around aquestionable section of the bronx or maybe it was brooklyn who knows i was lost i finally got her and the kids but no luggage around 3 00 a m and headed back to phila going back was much easier because the rain had stopped and i had a navigator we got home around 6 30 a m and went right to bed made a trip to the phila airport later that day to pick up luggage the rest of the visit was uneventful here is the family part of it there are 2 more kids and a husband craig who were back in idaho on a camping trip with their new puppy louis they lived in st louis when they met a french brittany spaniel this my my brother in the picture it s not a great shot but the only one i have with the 2 kids and kelly then came sunday and the return flights we had departure times that were close but different airlines i dropped off kelly kids stroller and luggage and returned the rental car then i checked in the first sign of complications came when i saw the security line weaving down the hall it took 20 minutes to get through once at the gate i found out that the first flight was delayed about 30 minutes which wasn t bad in hind sight the airport was very crowded and once we boarded it took a long time to take off i was a bit concerned because i only had 45 minutes between flights in atlanta but the pilot made up the time and we actually landed early i was fortunate that the gates were close enough together that it was just a short walk and i didn t have to take the train i went to the posted gate but it was not the right one i found the right gate and immediately noticed a delay but it wasn t too bad then it kept getting later then the flight disappeared from the board i went up to the counter and asked about it the person in charge hadn t even noticed but she checked and announced that the gate had been changed i don t know how long they would have kept us there if i hadn t asked we were originally scheduled to depart at 8 54 we boarded at 10 30 and sat and sat on the plane first we had to wait for luggage to be loaded then we had to wait a very long time for them to fuel the plane did they think we could fly without it and then realized no the person sitting behind me had some medical issues so they changed my seat we finally departed at 12 00 midnight i talked to keith several times since he was picking me up in flint and has to go to work monday morning and just told him to keep calling the airlines for departure and arrival times we finally got to flint at 2 00 a m 3 hours late a bright spot my luggage was the first to come through on the belt this was my first experience with delta airlines i don t think i will be flying with them again it was good to be home and sleep in my own bed chester and oscar were very glad to have me home
