LEAVING ON A JET PLANE.........

Well folks, the Putney's are finally here in Maryland and Virginia and we finally have internet access, woo hoo! We left home last Saturday morning at 6:00 a.m. and headed for Sea-Tac Airport. Mom and Mimi had just enough time to use the ladies room and buy sandwiches (for lunchtime) to take with us on the plane before it was time to board. Upon arriving at Chicago's O'Hare Airport we had just enough time to disembark the plane, run over to the next terminal and board the next plane. Thankgoodness mom had bought the sandwiches and snacks to tide us over till we arrived in Baltimore that late afternoon. Airlines no longer give lunch or dinner however you can buy a cheese and cracker snack for $5.00. Whoop Tee Do! By the time we went to get the rent a car we were quite hungry needless to say, so we took our chances at eating at the Golden Corral which mom found out later that it is quite a popular chain down in the south. The cuisine was a complete southern style buffet and pretty good too. Quite tasty if I do say so myself. We finally made it up to Joe's (groom) place. Of course he was out at his bachleor party and mom had quite a time explaining to Mimi where he was.

Mimi: Where 's Joe?
Mom: He's at a party.
Mimi: What kind of party?
Mom: A big kids party.
Mimi: Well, I'm a big kid how come I can't go???

The next day we met Nicole (bride) and together with Mari (Joe's sister) we all went out to breakfast. unfortunately Nicole was not feeling well and left for home while the rest of us ate and then headed to Virginia but not before stopping in Washington d D.C.
