My wife and I need to go over to Pullman this weekend to work on her sorority house. The weather is absolutely gorgeous VMC and is predicted to remain so over the weekend. I've got the C-172N reserved starting at 6 PM and all is set. Routes planned, someone to pick us up at the FBO, everything. All was great until I pulled a briefing off of DUATS. Waded through all the NOTAMs and what do I see? The runway at PUW is closed all weekend. Called the FBO. A contractor is re-striping the runway and they doubt he'll be finished by 5 PM on Sunday.
Grumble, grumble, grumble. Back to plan B. Drive. Grumble, grumble, grumble.
