I had to go out to Virginia on business earlier this week but now it is time to give the blog some love again. I had an interesting return home as just as we were descending back into San Diego the pilot hit the power to get back in the air. Then he said we had to divert to Ontario (about 100 miles away) because of dense fog. We land in Ontario at around 8:45 PM and and are told that they'll wait 2 hours to see if the fog clears. If not then they'd fly to LAX and bus us back to San Diego. Instead, 2 strangers (Stan and Nicolas) rented a car and headed back to San Diego. On the way down we passed my sister's house and my parent's house.
We dropped off Stan on the way back to the airport (my car was there and Nicolas's family was waiting for him at the United terminal). Arriving almost at midnight, we dropped off my rental at Hertz and tool the Hertz shuttle to the airport. I then waited for the parking shuttle. When I got back to my car in the parking structure I reached into my pocket for the keys and pulled out the RENTAL CAR KEYS! Nothing like heading back to Hertz to drop off the keys. I finally got home at 1:00 PM instead of 9:00 PM. I guess the joke was on me last night.
