Flight travel woes

Well, yesterday was to go off without a hitch but someone forgot to tell US Air that.  We were to pick Sherrie Fausey up at Dulles airport at 5 p.m. and then bring her back to meet all our family and a few friends.  She calls in the afternoon to tell us they switched her flight so she is coming in at 5:25.    Half way down Interstate 66 we get a call from her that her flight is delayed for mechanical reasons.  So we stop at a Sheetz to kill time people watching while we wait rather than turn around and come back home.  By 6 p.m. her flight is completely cancelled and now she is on a flight arriving at midnight.  so home we go.  Then pick her up and this time that flight was early.  She got in around 11:30.  Her day started at 5 a.m.  She was exhausted.  Now today we are off to help her shop at EQUIPPING THE SAINTS.  A great place for missionaries to find good 'experienced' items at bargain prices.
