The first half of the plane trip went pretty well.  The plane was a little late getting into Toronto, but once it got in they really worked quickly to get it turned around and to Dallas in a hurry because of connecting flights in Dallas.  We got into Dallas around 3 pm and my flight to Portland is at 5:05 pm.  So I have plenty of time to get to the next gate.  So we board the plane to Portland and we are just sitting at the gate for awhile.  Then the pilot comes on and says there is a problem with the right wheel braking system and we will know if its fixable in about 10 minutes.  Then 20 minutes later he comes on and says unfortunately the braking system is not repairable and we have to de-board the plane and set up a new flight.  So we de-board and they begin the process of finding us a new plane.  They set up a new time and a new plane and 3 hours later we have re-boarded and hit the air to Portland. I get into a Portland around 10 pm and get my checked bag and home by 11 pm… Its GREAT to see Bunny and Scott again and we  begin to get caught up as to whats been happening. Its nice to be in my own bed.. I am home ..
