Although we weren't mentioned by name, it was Kathy who asked about the snowplows at ORD (O'Hare). Written by Scott McCartney, who was on the trip, his WSJ Middle Seat column makes for a fair and entertainingly descriptive article.
We've previously met Will Steele, the "20-year-old...who lives with his mother in Auckland, New Zealand," and he is somewhat chagrined by the description, for which he's being gently teased on the FlyerTalk forum. We won't mention it, other than to ask Will how his mother is.
You can spot Kathy swooping in with her camera for a split second in the video.

Kathy and Brian
Two retired educators alternating joyfully between seeing the world and enjoying our eight grandchildren (in order of birth), Jake, Avery, Taegan, Lily, Peyton, Riley, Blane, and Jace.
Kathy and Brian met in the clarinet section of the University of California (Santa Barbara) Symphony Orchestra several decades ago.
Brian's Western Canadian roots and Kathy's Colorado ties resulted in their making beautiful music together along with producing a cross-border crop of descendants.
Kathy spent a year studying in Vienna at the Institute for European Studies and the University of Vienna.
Brian started the school band program in Hope, British Columbia, and later became the high school's vice-principal for 6 years and subsequently principal for 15 years before retiring in 2001.
Kathy, in between raising our three children, taught kindergarten and first grade, middle school, and high school - mathematics, computer studies, ESL, and her first love, band, before retiring in 2001.
We enjoy sharing our travel experiences and providing the odd travel tip to friends, relatives, and visitors.
