It's Good to be Home

Home again. A day to put up the tree and watch football--the Eagles play at 8:30 on ESPN so I get three games today (insert wife growl here)--and relax.

I just have to comment on the great experience we had flying. I know flying in general just sucks, but we flew Frontier Airlines and I can't say enough good things about them. The planes were big, clean and had 18 channels of Direct TV on screens inserted in the seats in front of you. For $5 you can watch anything you want. This is a nominal fee when you have two kids flying coast-to-coast. The people who work for the airline were all helpful and smiling and seemed like they genuinely wanted to assist you with anything.

The security lines went smoothly since people are getting smarter and passing their shoes through the scanner. I did get called to the side to inspect a bag that had some metal sculptures in them but that was a slight inconvenience barely worth mentioning. I must say that the TSA folks are mostly rude but this time they didn't seem intentionally rude, just indifferent.

Overall it wasn't nearly as bad as experiences in the past.
