Ultimately I think we got rid of about 100 records, probably 6 or 7 big garbage bags of clothes, sheets and towels. A bunch of kitchen stuff, and some other random stuff. Probably a good 2-3 carloads of stuff. Not done but much progress made!
But, I had to have more fun too. So, I went on a hash (“A Drinking Club with a Running Problem” for those who don’t know what that is). It was in Redwood City which was close-by.
Here are some photos from the trail:
I didn’t realize there were houseboats in Redwood City!
Interestingly, there was a row of these towers, and each one was occupied by a homeless guy.
Beer Stop at The Port of Redwood City:
Interesting DVD found on trail!
End of Trail – West Point Marina
A few days later I checked out the Moss Beach Distillery with my cousin Beanie and her hub Steve. I hadn’t been there before. The plan was to watch the sunset but alas it was foggy. Still nice though!
Flew home on a Tuesday. Philly was hit by a big thunderstorm so our flight was delayed by about a half hour. Not too bad. The bad part was, I got off the plane, hit the bathroom, and got to baggage claim. Nothing happening there. After about a half hour wait, there is an announcement – “The baggage ramp is closed due to ‘weather’ – we’ll give you updates on your baggage momentarily.”
Long story short, it took TWO AND A HALF HOURS to get my bag!! The only other update we got was about 5 minutes before our bags were loaded on the carousel, we were told our bags would not be uploaded here but would be delivered to our homes, and to get in line to make a claim. So I got in line. And then, like I said, 5 minutes later a carousel starts up and they announce the baggage from our flight was being offloaded.
So, left my cousin’s house at 7:45AM PT to head to the airport. 11:00AM flight delayed until 11:35. We take off around noon. Land at about 8:15PM ET. Get my bag around 11PM. Catch DE Shuttle about 15 minutes later, one other person gets dropped off before me. Got home a little after midnight.
UPDATE: I sent a complaint to American Airlines about the baggage delay. I got an apology email and 5,000 points added to my Frequent Flier account.
Had a nightcap with some vodka that I bought from the Half Moon Bay Distillery – Purissima Vodka. Good stuff! They also make Gin which I didn’t try.
Watched a couple episodes of Alfred Hitchcock Presents and then it was 2AM and time for bed.
Until next time!
