Missus ORPO is home and other sundry items

Got her at Terminal 6 at LAX last night. She was the last one into the baggage claim. The wheelchair route had been modified due to an elevator out of commission. And wheelchair passengers are the last to deplane. We got out of LAX about 2230 hours. We had a potty stop in Santa Clarita and a late meal at Denny's in Mojave. We hit the house at about zero-two something hours in the AM. I moved my RDO from yesterday to today. I wasn't going to show up at work at 0630 this morning. Not on your life.
I made it to LAX in less time than I had estimated,,,along with google maps. I did the trip in two hours flat. Two weeks before it was about 2:30 to 2:45. Hmmmm?
And for those interested, I finally commented on PHJ&F about the Flight of the Intruder video. Thought provoking? Probably not. Memories? A lot. That airplane represents nine years of my life. Along with a lot of fine folks that I had the privilege to serve with over the years. Going to one of them's retirement next year. She was a young AMS2 back in 89-91 in my Airframes Shop. And now she is an LDO LCDR. With 24 years of service.
