Finally in Portland

Tuesday was quite a day of traveling for me. Thunderstorms were running rampant in Philly, so after delaying boarding for half an hour, we spent 2 hours sitting in the plane at the gate and on the tarmac just waiting for storms to pass. I missed my connection in Chicago before we even took off. What's worse, I missed the 7:40 to Portland that was boarding just after I arrived in Chicago.

So they put me on standby for the 9:30, with a double booking on a Wednesday morning flight *just in case*. Thankfully, I got the last seat on the flight and got into Portland around 11:30. Took a shuttle to the hotel, where Geoff bought me a beer, which was sorely needed.

Anyway, I'm here. See y'all around Portland!
