Anyone not planning on doing the Alaska Airlines tour at noon on Thursday? If so, please let me know. AS is asking for firm numbers.

N764AS has landed, and we've made it onboard AS50.^

We were slightly concerned as weather was moving in, and was quite foggy last night about midnight.

And I don't think it was mentioned, but we had thunder and lightning here last night

I made it to my Airbnb rental. Forgot that its 2 bed, 2 bath, should have offered to share to save cash.
