And so there I was in O’Hare Airport waiting for the next plane to Milwaukee
“And where are you going?”
“Peter Rabbit”, she said.
I digested that in silence, but when she stood up and gathered her belongings I took a look at the notice board--NOW BOARDING FOR CEDAR RAPIDS

You've got to admit -- things like that do make life more interesting.
When I was young, we vacationed yearly at Lake Okoboji in Iowa. On once occasion, my parents decided to take a side trip to Cedar Rapids. I was very disappointed when I finally learned I was not going to "See the rabbits!"
