Live from the House of Miles

I am the first to arrive at the HOM for lunch with many other FTers. I finally met Randy in RT. Janet was kind enough to give me a guided tour 'behind the scenes' at the HOM and introduce to me the rest of the staff.

Rub it in - you're there and we're not. (Just as any proper FT Do attendee does!) How is the weather? Is Freddie, Jr, at the House of Miles? Come on - we need to live vicariously, on this non Thai $0 F fare day.

But you should have been here yesterday! It was snowing and traffic was crazy. I was going to get insurance for the car but Randy told me that the weather would be better. I was here for the chat last night and it was fun watching and participating.

People are starting to arrive for lunch. Wish you were here, Carol!

We've taken the tour, gotten our t-shirts (thanks Randy!), and are now gabbing, solving all the frequent flyer problems of the world.

Sunny outside & windy (in COS anyway; snowing from DEN most of the way to COS).

And I'm going to cheat here, having had to leave the House of Miles a little while ago to head to the Wyndham to take some conference calls... but a sincere thanks to Randy, Janet, and the rest of the crew at the HoM for their hospitality. And boy, what an office - makes me want to move out here and work there!

Wish the rest of you could be here for the HoMDo...

I'm the late arrival here... most of the crew has already headed over to the Wyndham to get ready for tonights festivities.

It is great to finally see the operation behind the operation... and I'm really glad I made it up here!

Thanks to Randy and gang for opening their doors to this rowdy crew!

Make me feel seriously awful about not attending. Did every attendee get these? Or just you, because you write about UA? Seriously, what an awesome gift - even if I am green with jealousy.

Don't forget about the free weekend night at any Starwood property. St Regis Monarch Beach, here I come.
