The plane has landed!!! Yesterday brought Carol and Kyle a journey to remember. A delayed flight in Albany NY - finally landing in Newark NJ - boarded plane and then stuck for 5 hours on the runway. Cell phone charger in baggage, battery about dead. No food or water - they cancel the flight and let everyone off. Folks stuggle to get in line to find the next way OUT. Carol books a flight home for today at 5:30 knowing that flying in the south is risky during the summer months. Carol and Kyle stay at friends house and Kyle is sick - poor fella is puking and its hot in NJ as it is here in NC - no AC!
Day begins with Kyle still in the bathroom - crackers and fluids gets him back on track. Arrive early at the airport - again have to be in a place that is like no other... Flight delayed .... 1 hour 22 minutes later - they take off and land here in Charlotte NC - 8 minutes ahead of schedule.
Baggage, drive home and the week will FINALLY be complete.
Its a story to look back on - a chapter to close and more to look forward to.
I had a busy day today - unloading the rental truck, cutting the grass, BJ's run to get something for the fridge - worked in the garden and had time for a dip in the pool - a few innings of the Mets .... and its great to be in the south. Tree frogs, thunderstorms, humid and hot and hearing Morgan and Donna talk that SWEET southern talk .... its good to be home.
Today is Denise's birthday. She would have been 42 today. I know I am not the only one today missing her. This year has been a tough one but through Gods grace and love - we will forge ahead with great expectation knowing that God is in control and all things work through Him.
Today is a day that the Lord has made, Let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Gods blessings and looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow.
Peace,
Lonnie
