Hello from North Carolina, everyone! After a bizarre travel day consisting of delays, cancelations, and being re-routed all over the East Coast due to the (currently) ongoing government shutdown, I eventually made it into Raleigh this past Saturday evening – and only a couple hours later than my originally planned arrival time – for a […]
