Love the Walgreens (believe there may be 2) and love the outlet center (Tanger - get the AAA coupon book). We won't be going this year (sad, sad, but we'll deal with it). Plus1 and I got married right before a trade event in Gatlinburg and people in our industry asked us where we were honeymooning. We of course, in our wonderful drool smart a$$ way, said Gatlinburg and some believed us :rolleyes:.

And on the last part, no. You're missing -87 and -90, and the B717 is technically in the same family.

I have the -90 I think and I definitely have the 717 (this year). I don't know about the -87 so I'm guessing no.

Hmmm...-2, -7, -9. Which others are there?

-1, which still can be found on routes such as DCA-CVG.

How long is the AUS -> Houston drive? I'm considering dropping in late on the Houston Mini-Do on Saturday night. The B6 schedule into HOU sucks but there is a flight that gets in to AUS at 5:40pm.

Between three and four hours.

2-3 hours depending on how fast you drive.

The airport is on 71, just take that south to I10 east.

There are two Walgreens close together in Sevierville - I stopped because I got the Register Rewards over the weekend (itself a profitable enterprise). Tanger Outlet in Sevierville also has a Coach store.

Messing with co-workers / industry colleagues is always ^

I haven't snagged the CRJ-100

The DC-90-20 is also one of the only variants of that type which I am missing (got the DC-9-15 with Texas International and Aeromexico).

Fly GRK to ATL on DL connection AKA ASA

it is the fab CRJ100!!

Closer to three than four. I've done it from the Northwest side of Houston in closer to 2. Somehow I avoided getting a ticket in Elgin or Giddings.

I was quite upset when my LFT-ATL flight was swapped for a CR2 from a CR1.

I think that "menu" description just made me soil myself.
