Three am came awfully early yesterday morning. Uber was on time to pick me up at 4:15 and we got to the airport in plenty of time. What was a surprise was the really, really long line out the door for the Delta sky priority line. However, the staff handled it well and checked the line for a 5:30 am departure while mine was 6:30.
I felt like I walked 5 miles in the Atlanta airport only to find out the connecting flight to Jackson was delayed. I got tickled when the flight attendant kept telling everyone on the PA system we would soon be landing in Jacksonville, Mississippi.
I made it to Budget Rent-A-Car, made the deal and headed to my cousin’s in Leesburg.
Traveling with guidance by my iPad, I passed all these communities I’ve known all my life like Fanin, Rheobeth, etc. I was lost because there all new roads – 4 lane, well-paved, and pretty traffic free.
Jean and Roger were home when I walked in. We did a quick catch-up and I headed to my brother’s in Brandon. I knew that way over the old roads.
I visited with Archie and Tanis and then we headed to Shaggy’s on the Rez for some seafood.
I took them back home and headed to Jean’s to beat the rain and the darkness. I don’t want to be out at night and driving.
Today I meet my niece and we are going to try to tie up some legal ends with my brother and sister-in-law and get some other things accomplished to make it easier on them.
Mississippi is scheduled for 60-70 mph winds and thunderstorms. Welcome to spring.
Stay tuned!
