On Friday, I'm heading out on vacation. I'm flying to Seattle, and taking a train hitting up Mt. Rainer National Park, the Cascades, Glacier National Park, Yellowstone National Park, Grand Teton National Park, and various little towns for a little over a week.

At least, that WAS the plan. Today, the company operating the train announced that effective immediately, they're bankrupt and are stopping all services.

Yes, less than three days before I leave.

So now I have a plane ticket to Seattle and one from Wyoming that aren't refundable, with nothing planned in between and just two days to figure something out. Oh, and a couple thousand dollars that a company cannot pay me back (and that's why, kids, I pay for pretty much everything on my credit card). Yeah, I think I'll be busy these next two days.
