The wife and I have recently returned from our trip to the great northwest (Washington, Oregon and northern California). For the most part I was without internet access but was able to use Twitpic from my phone which would update my Twitter page and then ultimately update my Facebook status. Phew, that is tiring. Anyway, for those of you that do not follow me on Twitter or are not my Facebook friend (why are you NOT?) here are the pics that I took while on vacation using my cell phone. Oh and for those of you who actually do follow me I have tossed in one or two that never made it to the web.
(Twitter: Headed 2 Seattle w/ my FRR shirt on.)
I was hoping to maybe add one of my favorite local bands to someone’s playlist in the northwest. Since my airplane relaxation medication made me high as a kite I was unable to do much of anything.
(Twitter: On the shuttle.)
This was probably the best part of the trip that day. Our shuttle driver at Nashville International helped carry our bags and was friendly and even made a Pac-Man Jones joke.
(Twitter: Mmmm airport food.)
This was to be my last meal. I fear flying so I just assumed bad would happen. It was a nice, hearty, rib-sticking meal that I assumed would stick with me the entire 5 hour flight.
(Twitter: Almost boarding time. Getting antsy.)
I think the anticipation of boarding and the almost 2 hour wait was worse than the actual flight. It was around this time that I popped my doctor prescribed medications that would buzz me up something awful!
I did not post this previous picture as we were just taking off over Nashville and my phone was in airplane mode. Seeing the engine outside of the window always makes me think of Bill Shatner and ‘The Twilight Zone’!
Here is another previously un-Twittered pic. Although I am deathly afraid of heights and flying I just kept looking out that window.
Apparently I took several more pics that never made it to the web than I thought. This was the first of about eight snacks (no joke) I ate on that trip to Seattle. My pill kicked in and, not unlike a weed fiend, got incredibly hungry!
I cannot believe that I didn’t post this one. Even in my mind-bent stupor I still have the brain of a 12 year old.
(Twitter: We’re in Seattle! I’m kissing the ground.)
This was easily five of the longest hours in my life. I vow never to take a long flight again. Ever.
(Twitter: Dollar Rental sux ballz!)
About an hour and a half AFTER we landed we were still trying to get the rental car stuff sorted out. The guy at the counter kept trying to up sell us! Apparently, I used a few choice words. I can’t remember much.
After eating a dinner that I also do not remember I crashed into the hotel room bed! It could only get better from here.

Glad to see you’re still posting. I laughed when I saw your “long flight” comment – it is all relative isn’t it. I once had an argument with a lawyer about service on long flights. Afterward, I realized our misunderstanding was because she thought 4 to 5 hours qualified as long, but in my mind 4 hours is normal. 10 hours is long. 2 hours is short.
