...so here's the latest...after I talked to everyone last night I finally fell asleep about 12 midnight.　 I woke up this morning and thought I better change my flight. I was going to fly home next Sunday night arrive in LAX on Monday at 1 am and then go to work.　 I thought this is silly....I'll come home a day early on Saturday and have sunday to relax plus save one extra day of hotel and car rental.　 I called United and they said it was going to cost me $1400 (150 for the change and 1250 for the new flight).　　 I thought...that is not worth it.　　 So I went to Delta and found a one way ticket from Roanoke to LAX for only $302 total.　 So I just bought that and then I can fly home Saturday and be home by 4 pm.　 I calculated taht by saving one nights lodging and extra day car rental and rather than a taxi in LAX and take the bus for 1.50 this whole fiasco will only cost me about $150 extra which is what it would cost to change the flight.
　
So...it's 6 am and I'm about to have Enterprise pick me up and get my car and head to Lexington, VA to see the battle of Lexington, Lee's Gravesite, Stonewall Jacksons home, Woodrow Wilson Birthplace and then find a place to stay tonight in Charlotesville, VA.　 It is raining hard today :(　 Hope the weather gets better.
