belated Portland days...11/1/11 (travel home)
Didn't discuss or post everything... the pic below is from my solo pass through at the art museum downtown before the Friday night party. Travel home...was ridiculous. The 30 lbs I mailed out needed to be abandoned or repacked. My large check-in clocked at 54 lbs and I had to rip it all open and remove 4 lbs to put in my carry-on (which had my gator head and I was trying to not overpack it). so the carry-on was uncomfortable. The airline front desk person was a snot and a half. Then, the gator eyeballs were reading as "liquid" in the xray baggage machine and I had to watch someone unpack my bag, because of course you can't touch your own luggage. I told them it was round LEDs but no...so dirty underwear (repacked from large back, randomly stuffed into small back) literally out on the table. She finally got the gator head and was so impressed she had to show it round the xray security staff. :). Long flight. large man watching Green Lantern and Tree of Life on his laptop...little freedom of movement. and home. back to work, dogs, routine, and a decided lack of Halloween.
