‘Always fly on Saturday…’
I’m sitting in the airport in Knoxville, surrounded by rocking chairs, waiting to board a flight to Seattle. I’m attending a church planters conference called ‘Calibrate’, beginning tomorrow afternoon and ending Monday evening. I’m going as one of the representatives for New Thing Network.After Seattle, I am pretty excited to get to spend three days with my dear friend Jim Schmotzer in Bellingham, WA, the town that Jim swears everyone has a connection to at one time or another. It’s a wonderful town, hopefully a great place to relax for a couple of days. (yes, I’ve packed my discs)
I’ll try and give some updates on the conference in the next couple of days if I can…(I will attempt to reverse my ‘lack of blogging transgressions’ this week. Maybe then Cliff will get off my back about it…)
Oh, yeah…and one more thing. Knoxville’s airport is always an unbelievably low stress, relaxing airport experience, but evidently, Saturday it is even better.
My son dropped me off at the front door, I walked in to the counter to check a bag and there was no one in line, not only at my airline, but at all the airlines. Not one single person, other than the workers. I then proceeded to the security, and once again, not one single person was in the security line in front or behind me. It’s rare to not feel rushed when you’re putting everything through security, but I was so relaxed I put each shoe through separately about 30 seconds apart just because I could…
The moral, at least according to all the workers I’ve chatted with so far…’always fly on Saturdays’ (except on home football gamedays).
