Today's departure day. It's a huge itinerary, starting in St. Paul,
MN and ending up in Blacksburg, VA. Because of scheduling problems,
the band is staying out on the road for the duration, instead of
returning home for a day at at time.

My travel started well but hit a snag in Houston, which was fogged
in. ATC had my flight circle Houston for over an hour, so I missed my
connection. I was rescheduled for a 9pm flight to MSP, a 5 1/2 hour
layover.

I did reach the St. Paul Hotel around midnight. Pooped, I went to
sleep shortly thereafter.
