Getting ready for my first Amtrak trip in five months, wake up at 4:30, everything's on schedule - 10 minutes later alert that there's a disruption. Call Amtrak and talk to a fantastic agent who is reading the notes in the system to me, powerlines down across tracks north of Chico and PG&E does not have a bucket truck available for a few hours so as of now it's a 3-4 hour delay. This is train travel in the US.
We made it back to Charlie, our camper in Vermont, yesterday. We’ve all got Covid and I’m pretty much spending my day recovering. Gilmore Girls, fever reducers, and tissues abound. I’m so glad we got back before everyone’s symptoms peaked.
