Getting there

We made it to Chicago just fine. There was a delay of about an hour
because they couldn't refuel the wing on our side of the plane! Guess
a valve was frozen or something. After the pilot made a few nervous
walks down the aisle to look out the window at the progress they got a
mechanic to help and we got some gas. They could have just asked
someone sitting around me, they had plenty of gas! Had a cool kid
sitting next to us. Probably 19 or so, wearing an Orange County
Choppers red hoddie and sneakers was on his way to Honolulu!
He had a one way ticket and knows nobody there! He said he meets
people real easy and was staying at a hotel until he met some locals.
Wow to have that kind of guts and confidence!
Now we wait about 3 hours to board the long journey.
