Baggage Claim

by Rob

Nate's home. Well, actually, we're not at home, as in our house. But last night he arrived back in the states after 14 days in China. Today, with some help and support from Lynn and Lis, he joined us in Maine. For me, he's with us, and so he's home.

A very cool added bonus of this great place where we vacation each year is the regional airport that's about 5 minutes from the cottage. It cost us $20.00 more to fly him here, rather than to Portland, which is at least an hour drive away.

Is this a small airport? Well, when we parked, we pulled onto a section of lawn. I told Kim that it felt like we were parking at the fairgrounds. But, for me, the feature which best summarizes this airport is the baggage claim. Yes, this is a picture of it. Nate and the other ten passengers disembarked and entered the "terminal building." Then we all walked outside to the baggage claim.

It is so great to have him "home."
