Not quite the finish we expected

Posted on July 25, 2010March 27, 2019 by mauistamper

Our 4am wake-up call wasn’t pretty but we were on time for the shuttle to the airport. Our flight from Salt Lake into Seattle arrived a few minutes early and we were pretty pleased with ourselves until I picked up my voicemail.

Our flight into Maui was delayed in spectacular fashion. Our 10:50am departure was now scheduled for 4:50pm.

Can you say “ugh” with me?

We were given breakfast vouchers with a promise of more towards lunch. We “shopped” in the airport – Seattle actually has a pretty nice retail environment – and then headed to the gate. We’ve been sitting here for a couple of hours trying to be productive.

I can hardly wait to get on the plane for 5 hours. Wish I had some paper, ink and stamps. Oh! I do have stamps. I would never check my new sets from convention. They’re in my carry-on. Let’s see…catsup, mustard and shoyu…what do you think of those new “In Colors”?

The new “in” colors sound “delicious and you could always use a newspaper for card stock…..think of the possibilities! lol Sorry for your delay – hope you did finally have a safe flight!
