We've made it finally to Brunswick, Maine, 20 or so miles north of Portland. We flew out today in two waves -- well, one wave of 55 and one ripple of 4. The "wave" arrived at Midway at 5:30 AM, and got out of Midway on time just before the storms hit Chicago. The "ripple" left about noon, and arrived in Manchester on time. The "wave" however, ran into some equipment issues in Detroit and were a little more than 2 hours late to Manchester. They had to switch out planes in Detroit, and we only lost one sleeping bag and one suitcase, both of which have been located, and are supposed to be delivered to us here in Brunswick before we hit the road for the last two hour leg of the journey.
This group was great. They deal with the adversity well, were helpful and polite and courteous to each other, to the people at the airport, and very respectful of other guests here at our stop in Brunswick, where, of course, we arrived very late.
We'll have pictures tomorrow after we get to H.O.M.E. in Orland, Maine, another couple of hours up the road.
