Flight Diary From a Secret Arkansas Ball Trip
A travelogue details a frustrating mission failure amid security checks at Hobby Lobby Airport and a Southwest flight. The writer notes TSA procedures, a ban on liquids, and a rough customs-like walk from plane to baggage with humorous sidesteps about insiders and familiar faces encountered in transit. The piece blends travel mishaps with pop culture asides and ends recalling a basketball loss and serendipitous meetings with public figures and local friends.
