Congrats on the new grandbaby! So how do you like flying? I haven't done it much but the acceleration on takeoff is a rush..

It was pretty cool really . I think being in the smaller plane I think we may have felt things a bit more . We had to fly through a rain storm coming in for the landing ..

Was able to bump up to a 6:30 pm flight luckily. I think between Delta and Expedia there was some shenanigans going on with our seats …
