De Plane!

Ok...it wasn't bad at all. Once we were in the air after takeoff, Kevin asked me how I was doing and I began to laugh hysterically. I said "I feel ok but it's hard to get past the fact that I am hurtling through the sky in an aluminum tube." What struck me most about air travel, in general, is the complete lack of glamour. I had always thought of air fare as an expensive proposition reserved for businessmen, wealthy people and those in emergency type "money is no object" situations. I guess that may have been true, at one time, but basically the full spectrum of economic and social class is now fully represented. And they were all sitting very close to me.
