We're leaving today

Heading to WI for a week or so leaving today. Our flight isn't scheduled for about three hours but I see that Chicago is already running behind. There are scattered thunderstorms in the forecast for both Chicago and Green Bay. It doesn't bode well.

Did I mention I despise flying? Not because of the flying itself or even the sardine nature of the plane but because it's so unpredictable.

We have a long layover in Chicago but I'm guessing our connecting flight will also be running behind. We're scheduled to arrive in Green Bay at 5:08pm. Oh, that's today, not tomorrow. Anyone want to make a bet on when we'll actually get there? Leave your guesses in the comments section.

Sam is very excited and keeps saying "I want to leave NOW!" and "Why can't we get on the airplane NOW? I hope he's as good today as he was the last time we flew. I hope Ben and I will behave better than we did during our last miserable flying experience.

Wish us luck!

Edited to provide time of arrival: About 6pm. Given that one of our flights was over two hours late that isn't nearly as bad as it could have been.
