We all met for breakfast and bingo and then it was off to the airport for me. Thanks to Ladyfingers and her brother Pat for taking 3 hours out of their day to drop me off, Even if it was a good way for Julia to get in a nap. Did I say how much I love flying? Well after leaving Arkansas I landed in Denver for a 2 hour layover. Not bad I figured I could use the time to work on the computer. By the way I should say thanks to Peter and the guys at Teletechie for their help in getting my laptop up to speed. 
Anyway I am sitting on the plane to Orange County California when the pilot says there is an electrical storm and we can’t be refueled and we can’t leave without more fuel. So we sit. And sit. 20 minutes into this he states that we are being refueled but there is another “discrepancy” and we will be off shortly. Meanwhile we can all see three guys coming in and out of the planes cockpit. Turns out the cockpit door lock broke. Another 15 minutes and we take off. So I land after Orange County Harley-Davidson closes. Now I am in California without transportation and I am exhausted and I have to Dee jay a wedding tomorrow. My buddy Zach (the groom of the wedding I am Dee Jaying) picks me up and I eventually (we stayed up late BS’ing) crash at his house.
