Home to Pennsylvania

Guest post from: Kent Lara

We set the home security alarm (click here) last night, locked the back door, and took off for our annual holiday trip home to Pennsylvania. The traffic into the airport wasn't too bad. Actually it was surprising how light the traffic was, but I guess a lot of people wait until the last minute to travel. I'm grateful that we can take off when we want to, and that we can spend so much time with our distant loved ones.

Of course, after we got to the airport, the traffic inside the terminal wasn't quite as light as it was outside. We arrived about ninety minutes before our flight was due to take off, and we used almost all of that time in getting through security. But that's all right. It's the thing that must be done these days to make sure that everyone can travel safely, and I appreciate all the people who work so hard to keep us safe. We all managed to pass through the area without having to go through that newfangled scanner that so many people complain about. None of us got the dreaded pat-down either. It was just a matter of waiting patiently in such a large crowd.

Now we're home for the holidays and ready to relax before we have to make the return trip. Happy holidays, everyone!
