My dad's flight lands at 3:45p today and I'll be picking him up.

Have read the IAH site re: idling in the cell phone lot but it leaves out how any info re: how long it is taking to make your way from the cell phone lot to the various terminals. I want to say the last time I was up there (Dec. of last year) it was maybe 60-70 minutes to make that very short trek.

Any recent experiences to share?

Hasn't been assigned an arrival terminal yet but am aware he can use the underground tram to transit terminals.

TIA as always.

Wife and I expecting a baby in late November and need to 'cordon off' a room we have in the house and want to put in french doors to do that.

Not looking to invest in high end designer doors or anything and Home Depot/Lowes don't have any available that won't take at least 2 months to deliver.

Am curious if there is a source for 'used' doors like this or some sort of 'wholesale warehouse' where I could find a unit that we either recondition or whathaveyou.

Basically looking for a basic double french door that we can get our hands on w/o breaking the bank.

TIA

Still checking to see if I can get access to our building (closed corp office) but if able we are interested in lending our MakerBot to an existing operation that can make use of it. It's a nice machine with low hours, pretty high end I think.

Any referrals or recommendations appreciated. Thanks!
