Made it to Virginia...

Made it to Virginia ... but only after a few adventures.  My original flight was from Salt Lake City, connecting in Houston, then to Richmond.  However, when I got to Houston I discovered that my second leg had been canceled – bad weather (icy rain) in Richmond.  The airline (United) rescheduled me on a new flight connecting through Chicago.  Dang!  Next thing you know, I'm on the way to Chi-town, arriving right at sunset (photo out the window at right).  I had a very short layover there (just 15 minutes), but fortunately the Richmond flight left from a gate almost adjacent to the one my Houston flight arrived at, so there was no problem making it.  I arrived in Richmond at about 9:30 pm, and was at my mom's house before 11 pm. 

A long day...
