Last Call

Something decidedly appropriate about reading Daniel Okrent's Last Call: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition while enjoying a cup of tea. Curious the relationships between prohibition and abolitionism, brewers and distillers, as well as between the temperance and suffragist movements.

Breeze Airways

 

This was my first experience flying Breeze Airways. I booked it primarily because it offered a direct flight from Hartford, Connecticut to Richmond, Virginia, and most definitely not because I would have to get up at 3:30 a.m. in order to get to Bradley International Airport in time for the 7 a.m. departure. 

Would I fly Breeze again? Definitely. Even if I had to get up again at 3:30 a.m., mostly because of my prevous experiences with connecting flights. Like the flights from Richmond to Philadelphia and Philadelphia to Hartford. No complimentary snacks, but there was plenty of room for my carry-on bag and briefcase.
