My weekend in Charlotte was an interesting one. Uptown is about the size of my thumb. Bank of American practically owns the city. The fall colors are beautiful. Bubba’s has really good barbeque and hush puppies. The Westin rocks and so does their mall in South Park. Jes’ co-workers are a fun bunch and their office is pretty neat. The whiteys really know how to party it up and drink beer. I’m just not sure how ready I would be to move there but I’d be willing to consider it. I’d just have to get to know the area a little better.

Well, my flight back was even more of an adventure. It felt like the longest flight ever. For a 6-hour flight, it took 9 hours to get home. There were 3 crying babies on board, I had a middle seat, the flight was VERY bumpy, and there was a 1.5-hour layover at SFO. As if it couldn’t get any worse, we had to wait on the tarmack for 15 minutes for another plane to leave our gate.
