I wander, as I wander

So I wandered as far as JFK. After 4 hours on a plane, de-icing and getting as far as the end of the runway, it was over -- for now. An hour for reclaiming luggage, an hour for the Airlink Train (which stopped operating in the blizzard -- the 5th biggest in NYC history), another hour and half waiting for shuttles that never came; bartering with a limo driver waiting to pick someone else up; a harrowing 1.2 mile ride that took another 1.5 hours to get the the Howard Johnson's by the airport. There... that's 12 hours summed up in a few sentences. Then another 18 hours waiting for a ride back to Connecticut.  It simply wasn't meant to be now. So I'll wander again in a few weeks, or months.  Stay tuned.
