Winter Seed Catalog Moon
At DIA. No, not dead in action, but Denver International Airport. So is my cell-phone, unfortunately not with me. How did I lose it? No clue. It’s like a disappearance, a disappeared cell-phone. After just listening to one guy speak loudly on his, fo a long time, I can understand the motivation to steal them an destroy them. But I want mine back.
I’ve also made a discovery today. My flight out is at 3:44 pm. The Olsons are all back in school so I could have left earlier. At first I bemoaned this lack of efficiency. I’ve spent a traveling lifetime trying to shave hours, even minutes off connection times and getting in and out of places with just enough time.
Instead today I got up, ate a leisurely breakfast, packed, checked out, drove to the Enterprise rental car return around 11:15 am. Got on the bus and made it to the airport around noon. Got my boarding pass, navigated the walk bridge to Gate A security (much quicker), found the terminal associated with A34 and had lunch. Then I lost my cell phone.
Here’s the learning. I’ve not felt pressed, instead, even with the phone I’m relaxed. Plenty of time. So, in the future I will plan my travel for relaxed comings and goings, not the most efficient. There’s no prize for most efficient traveler. Is there?
