Airports, Fox News, Trixie, SWAC Daughter....

SWAC Daughter & Trixie at Fox News store in Minneapolis Airport. We shared a taxi from Minneapolis to the airport because our flights, both on U.S. Airways, were only an hour apart. Trixie was leaving first.

Last chance to buy 2008 Official Convention Gear! These shops were throughout the Xcel Energy Center in Saint Paul and in the Mall of America as well as the airport. They were pretty much sold out by the end of the week.
Last look at the Minneapolis skyline from the airport. We enjoyed our stay in the city and the friendliness of the folks there.
Trixie was supposed to be on this airplane heading to Detroit on her way to Roanoke. SWAC Daughter and I were leaving an hour later heading to Charlotte on our way to Richmond. I took this photo to email to Trixie of her plane preparing to leave Minneapolis ...

... so imagine our surprise when her plane left and, shortly afterwards, she showed up in our waiting area! She had volunteered to be bumped from her overbooked flight (in exchange for a future trip) and was on our flight to Charlotte. We traveled together to Charlotte where we found a late-night snack before going our separate ways.
Good traveling with you, Trix!
