Seattle, WA (USA)

Many days after we'd initially planned to leave, we were FINALLY told we could leave the Seattle area today. It took a long time for hotel check-out (from the Red Lion on Fifth Avenue), the commute to Paine Field in Everett, eating breakfast and completing some paperwork.  After that, we then we had to go over all the work that was done by the contractors. At 1130, we finally got airborne and headed east. [We arrived in Hampton Roads before 2100L.]  It's good to be home!
