The long way to O'Hare

Here's the route we took into O'Hare tonight. I think they had all traffic coming in over Madison, regardless of origin. If I had a camera, I would have taken a picture of all the planes on our TCAS towards the end of the flight, and all the other planes in the air before we went below the clouds. The weather in the picture is about an hour old as of now. The northerly curve over Lake Michigan is a diversion we took around where the storms were at the time. Even with that, there was a lot of St. Elmo's fire on the captain's windshield (looks like glowing static electricity trails) and it would occasionally connect with itself across the windshield and make a bright flash. In contrast, below our route is the route that the flight took yesterday, in much better weather (note: the links may not work after a few days).

Hey Jeremy!!

I know it's been years since I've heard anything about you, but you look like you're doing good. You and Abee look really happy and congratulations on the one on the way!! I know we've lost touch over the years so we need to fix that! Love you! Courtney
