Trip #2

Sunday May 28th, I did not get to attend any worship service. It was about 5 am Pacific time when I left E's apartment and headed for the airport - in the pouring rain, of course.

These flights were a bit less packed - and I did finnagle my way into exit row seats for each leg of the trip.

First stop: San Francisco - where everyone was funneled out of that terminal and I had to go through security all over again to get into the next terminal. Not my favorite airport by a long shot! Good thing I had 2 and a half hours to make my way through that airport.

Then Chicago - and after another lay over, Dubuque. It was well after 11 pm Central time before we landed in Dubuque.

A student from Wartburg Seminary was there to meet me and drive me to campus. She took me into the appropriate building, handed me a set of keys, pointed me to the elevator and left. It didn't take long for me to find my 2nd floor room and fall into bed.
