Juneau

The captain just announced we are twenty minutes from Juneau. I am so
excited. This has been a long trip, and while I have been a good
traveler this trip, I'm looking forward to being *home*.

(Home as in hometown. Our house is home, but Juneau will always be
where I'm from.)

I wrote a lovely post yesterday from the Dallas Airport, all about
traveling and such, but it got lost in the ether.
=====
I'm in Juneau and settled in my childhood home. My flight from Dallas
yesterday was delayed, and I ended up missing my connection in Seattle
(the flight took off fifteen minutes before I landed) and spending the
night there. This morning, I was up and back at the airport early to
get to Juneau before breakfast.
=====
The weather is sunny and Juneau-warm. Perfect. Tonight we are grilling
Greek lemon chicken and sweet potatoes. Not a bad start to a trip home.
