so you had no dealings with anyone concerning your departure , route or arrival ?

No.
VFR aircraft in the united states are not required to submit flight plans or propose an estimated time of departure or arrival on domestic flights.
This is America - not Soviet Russia and i for one would prefer to keep it that way.
thousands of planes take off and land under VFR (visual flight rules) every day without bogging down the ATC system with needless requests and communications.
Yes... even King Airs and Lear Jets sometimes operate VFR

Hrm... with the operating altitudes of the King Air and Lears you would think it would be a requirement to at very least post a cruising altitude. They are at the very least required to set a transponder and get the occasional call "Traffic at xxx fl xxx report them in sight".
