At the hotel we asked if someone could take us back to the airport in
the morning and the girl at the counter figured someone could, but if
they couldn't give her a call at home and she'd come get us. In the
morning we were figuring out our route around weather in the lobby and
garnered up a bit of a crowd to chat. We got a ride back to the airport
and then discovered if we'd been really stuck the FBO although deserted
was open, light on, and enough food with a list of prices and a coffee
can. We could have lived there for a week!


I once had to spend a night at Brinkley, Arkansas because of weather.
Got a ride their hotel and asked if the lady behind the desk if I could
get a ride back to the airport in the morning. She said I could call
the police station and they'd take me, which they did. Got a nice tour
of the town by the officer. Guess that's one way to keep an eye on
those outsiders.
