Just Missed It….

My schedule has been completely jammed since I returned from New Jersey and from what I understand, I “threaded the needle” with my departure. With the dive show ending Sunday afternoon, I had contemplated leaving that evening and decided against. As it turned out, there were apparently terrible problems at the airport with multiple delays due to weather. One of my friends who lives down in Islamorada didn’t make it home until 3:00 a.m. instead of the 9:00 p.m. she’d expected. When I flew out on Monday with no issues other than a cold rain (the slushy snow had abated a couple of hours before), it wasn’t long before an incident occurred that caused one terminal to come to a virtual standstill. If I understood correctly, it was concern over a nearby security issue or it might have been a fire situation. The exact cause got a bit muddled in the telling and I didn’t follow-up about the details. I had great sympathy for both large sets of individuals caught in those circumstances. I think most of us who travel have experienced similar frustrations and there is nothing you can do except wait it out and hope for the best. How about it? Got any favorite, “Let me tell you about this…” stories?
