Last time we visited Craig we flew in and out of Reagan airport.  I wasn't happy because we couldn't fly there non-stop.  After reading about the problems with this airport I definately do not want to fly there again.

DR Iris do you have an opinion about this?  Craig said we should fly in and out of Baltimore.

I have not flown in or out of this area for many years, but am familiar with BWI, National, and Dulles airports.

I always choose nonstop flights, so if you’re flying out of Portland, you would probably need to fly into National or Dulles for a nonstop.

The FAA has indefinitely suspended helicopter flights that fly parallel to commercial flights, so I don’t think it likely that flying into Reagan/National is unsafe. As a matter of fact, it is probably safer now, as it will be under increased security for the foreseeable future.

I guess that was kind of a useless answer.

Where in Maryland does Craig live?

It takes about an hour from BWI to the DC/Maryland suburbs.

I, personally, make the choice based on nonstop service.

Avanti! isn’t top-tier Wilder, but it is very sweet.

When I was at the dentist last week for a cleaning we also did a 360 degree scan. I spoke to the dentist yesterday. Bad news! One root canal went bad and he’s recommending an implant. I’ve never had one and, frankly, it scares me. Anyone here have one? I’m interested to hear how it went and if you’re happy with it.

Also, he said there was an infection from the removal of one of my wisdom teeth! WHAT? That was 100 years ago! (I was twenty.) I’ve never heard of such a thing. So lots of time with the dentist in my future.

Oh, no!

I took another look at the condo I disliked. It’s very similar to the one I loved and thought that maybe I could make a few changes and be happy with it. When my agent and I arrived we learned that two other buyers had submitted offers! This was while we were waiting to get an appointment. Harrumph! I’m not heartbroken, but twice now a unit has sat on the market for months, then when I’m ready to buy buyers come out of the woodwork! I’ll view another one tomorrow. But, honestly, I’d like a break. Going through the fires was really stressful and I’m just not ready to prepare for a move.

One of the Avanti! extras was a 15-minute film on Clive Revill, who made two films with Wilder, this and The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes. But it also went into his roles in Irma la Douce and Oliver! Very nice.

I had the Firestick remote in hand, was going to turn it on to lower the volume (the Firestick comes through the TV speakers, which are awful), and then I was going to turn on the Blu-ray player and finish High and Low.

I woke up three or four times, wondering why I was sitting on my couch, when I'd just been doing something fun in a dream.
