We were able to go on one last end-of-summer bash before work started up again. We headed out to Wisconsin with the Decker clan. Because of this trip, I was able to make one of the best and most important discoveries of all kind. I figured out how to not get motion sickness on the plane! I have always hated going on planes because they make me feel so nauseous. Eventually I started eating candied ginger (thanks to Mythbusters) and that was about 10 times better than using nothing at all. I was able to feel a lot better while on the plane. But, if there was a particularly rough landing, even the ginger wasn't a cure-all. So on the way out there, Jarom had a thought. He told me that if it was an inner-ear problem, maybe something as simple as wearing ear plugs would solve the problem! I didn't really think that would work, but I was willing to try anything. And I did. And I had the best flight of my life! The way home was not a very smooth ride, but it didn't matter ...
