Traveler Tip

Considering that Spring Break is around the corner, I thought I would give you a heads up. Go early to the airport. We have become kind of casual in arriving early for our flights. But this week, we had a rude awakening.

We were traveling on a Tuesday morning no less. We thought nothing of getting to the airport one hour ahead. Well, we were shocked to be standing in a security line for over 45 minutes with no chance of getting on the other side before our flight left. Howard is much more brave than I am so he talked to the nice airport lady and she let us in the First Class lane so we jumped four rows ahead. Thank goodness!
If you are traveling to someplace fun, send a postcard to us here at home! SendOutCards has lots of cards with place names. For example: Skiing in Utah this week? You should be. We were just there and it dumped tons more dry fluffy snow in the resorts. Type utah in the search box at the top of the card catalog. Did you notice that I didn't capitalize Utah; it seems to work in the search better if you don't.

We all love getting mail but I have noticed that grand children and grandparents LOVE, LOVE, LOVE getting personal mail. So if you are traveling, your grandchildren would probably prefer a postcard with a personal message mailed specifically to them over a drawer full of cheap T-shirts! Better yet, make it a postcard with your own digital photo of your trip with YOU on the front and add a thought bubble saying something cute. They will LOVE that!
Happy Card Sending!
