mjm,

We fly out tomorrow, so I guess it'll be a meeting in "rice country" instead of "rice land" (li'l joke for you Japanese speakers).

We have another r/t ticket, so may well be coming back 9/30. Would then fly out 10/8 or so to come back 12/30 for Japanese New Year's. Then a r/t leaving early Jan.... Will we ever fly one-way? (Not at triple price, we won't!) We'll be in NYC in late Oct, btw., but probably on JetBlue. ($50 ROC-JFK ain't bad.) It's either that or ROC-ORD-LAG-ORD-ROC.... Might swing by Tampa "on the way" from Japan and from NY in Oct.

Need to work in a run somewhere to keep Platinum, unless we get really creative with our Fall trips. -Even Mrs. Kid is "used" to being Plat by now!

Hoping to be more social this year!

**Edited to add thanks for all the kind words above. (Thanks.) I hope to see you all in Chat again - or <gads> even in a restaurant somewhere!

Well I am fine with "rice country" as it is "beautiful" according to my westerly neighbors. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Safe travels and maybe see you in chat, but certainly in New Yawk at some point.

Mike

P.S. Hang on to my keitai number for when you are back next with a free moment.
