I'M LEAVING .... ON A JET PLANE

Well, not me personally, but Mrs. Ref and The Kid are all set to leave for their medical mission trip to Belize tomorrow. I don't know how that will translate at 0440 when I wake them up to get ready to walk out the door . . . in something like MINUS 20 DEGREE WEATHER.

They have an 8:15 flight out of Bozeman, which is 1-1/2 hours from here. Since we need to be at the airport an hour ahead of the flight (with all appropriate liquids/gels in a terrorist-proof Ziploc baggie), we need to leave here around 5:30.

Then Mrs. Ref wanted to stop for coffee on the way, so that'll back us up another 15 minutes.

Even for this lifelong early morning riser, this is pushing it.

After seeing them on their way, I'll head over to Perkins for some morning-type food, a little reading, and then hit some stores for a few necessities. As long as I'm there, it makes sense. Afterwhich I will drive home and probably plop down on the couch for a good nap.

I was going to write about getting up early for flights. Instead, I'll just say, "Safe travels!"
