I couldn't believe it when I got to the airport and found out that *both* garages AND *both* economy lots were full. I'll have to check their web site later, but I heard that they had the garages largely closed for maintenance. It also looks like that may be building another garage. I ended up parking in the Pike's Peak shuttle lot. It never ceases to amaze me how full the parking lots at DIA are in general. Even in the middle of the week in a non-holiday season the economy lots are nearly full.
Just to give you some indication of how this trip is going, here is what else is happening:
- I forgot to do my online checking last night. When I did it before leaving home, I was stuck with a middle seat on this completely full flight
- In the window seat is a mom with her small child on her lap who frequently likes to reach over and smack my keyboard. Special thanks to my Etymotic headphones for blocking out all the noise while I watched some World Rally action on my laptop.
- My back is jacked. I was hooking up some sprinklers for our new trees on Monday and I must of tweaked it funny. This airplane seat isn't helping.
I'll try to make up for the hassle by finding a *really* nice place to eat tomorrow. I'm open to sugestions from the PNW'ers.
