The Thanksgiving day holiday in the US is always the fourth Thursday in November and usually the next day (Friday) is a day off also.
The oldest son and his new wife are finding it difficult to fly in for the holiday weekend. So good old Dad says I'll buy the tickets so they don't have to spend about 30 hours driving. Then I heard...
We won't fly that airline.
That's too early in the morning of a flight. (SWMBO and I took the same flight)
That's an early flight to go back.
We can't take a Monday flight back home.
Then I asked the other son in e-Mail if he would like me to use my miles to get him a ticket to go on vacation. (He usually goes to friends in New Orleans for Mardi Grias sp?) No response. NOTHING.
Aw POOP!
