On the Way

Sue and I are lounging in the Oasis lounge at JFK complements of Mitch who gave us some day passes. We had a short night as always happens and got our packing down to 5 bags. Packing for these trips feels like a wrestler trying to make weight. We got a break when Delta only charged us for the extra bag and not the 4 allowed bags because it is an international trip. The flights are on different tickets so they did not have to do that for us. We took off on the runway along the famous first hole at the Fort. It is nice symmetry for my last view of the Twin Cities for 6 months to be the Fort Snelling Golf course where I am scheduled to play an hour after arrival on July 8th. Must be a good omen. We hang out here til our flight to Dubai leaves at 11 pm. They have great food in this lounge and us fixed income types have to look for a deal whereever we can find it. Thanks Mitch!
