Doh, I missed that you were routing through Seattle...welcome to my (adopted) home town! Sadly, I am working every night you're here, but I hope this visit goes extremely well.

2023-09-10 21:39:25 +0000 UTCHappy Travels. Do you have time to stop at Battleship New Jersey? Also, I noticed there are no total solar eclipses in England for awhile - 2048 is next annular and not until 2090 for a full solar eclipse). Do come to one of ours! and perhaps Mrs. Drach, too! Western US next month (OK - a bit too soon to come back again). Try for April 8, 2024. https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/eclipses/2024/apr-8-total/where-when/ Back to this trip, if you are not stopping in NJ, I would be happy to join you in Albany for dinner. Will you have availability Friday evening?

2023-09-10 00:25:41 +0000 UTCI wanted to, but they didn't accept my paper whilst HNSA wants me to present there, so the choice is obvious 😀

2023-09-10 00:25:02 +0000 UTCAt the end of your trip, will you be in New York or New Jersey, before your flight back to Seattle?

2023-09-09 20:30:07 +0000 UTCI plan to make the drive and see you, Sir, while in Erie, PA. God Speed!

2023-09-09 18:52:37 +0000 UTCWe're crossing paths in OHare Airport on my way to Zagreb on Thursday. Be sure to check out the F4F carrier fighter in the airport. Next time we'd love to host you in Kansas City. Our museum has the salvaged 1855 sternwheel riverboat Arabia (buried in a farmer's field by the shifting Missouri River) and the National World War I Museum & Memorial.

2023-09-09 17:41:25 +0000 UTCCheers Drac. Your US trips make me wish we didn't live in a city that is completely devoid of ships. We'd love to host your crew, but Denver isn't very boaty.

2023-09-09 15:19:19 +0000 UTCDon't forget to wave as you drive past Rochester on your trip from Erie to Albany. I regret I won't be able to make either Erie or Albany this trip. I hope you have a great, and safe, trip!

2023-09-09 15:01:12 +0000 UTCThe long (return) flight is one of the few things giving my wife pause about travelling home to Taiwan this coming January.

2023-09-09 14:45:53 +0000 UTCLuckily it's 1535 to 1800 so with luck i can stay awake most of the flight and redone myself immediately. To be fair adapting to westbound flights is easy for me, its going east that gives me jetlag. 😀

2023-09-09 14:35:01 +0000 UTCSafe trip! It's great you could get a direct flight from Heathrow to Seattle but the little thinking capsule sitting on the top of your head is going to be a mess!
