November 16, 2011.  Its official-  we have a gate.  But exactly where is it?

Left and right hand not knowing just what is going on, we are dispatched to a gate that doesn't exactly exist yet.  We get to spend 3 lovely days running the generator across from Gate 5, while we wait for instructions.  As luck would have it, we also figure out what Moya's main problem has been all this time while we're sitting here.

Soon however, they start building "our" gate. 

We will spend the next 7 weeks here.  Bill is injured from a fall on New Years Day, 2012, breaking seven ribs and 2 vertabrae.  We leave the gate about 10 days later.
