Not really late.. but I can retire comfortably at age 60 if I want to but do I want to quit?
Actually after all this time, I still like being at work but don't mistake me for some kool-aide drinking pollyanna style person. There are some REAL issues facing our pilot group in the next 36 months.
Would I miss the job... some of it yes!

Hearing a lot more talk about the 777 serving Nairobi. Must now debate the lesser of two evils: malaria vs. training.

Hah!! Kids these days!!
Thanks for the kind words.
Why don't I get in the seat when you are finished flying the first half!! You can even come back up dealing with sleep inertia to make the landing!!

Don't need to do all that work on our boat. We are SLOW.... Best advice I have ever received in docking... never travel faster than the speed at which you want to crash into someone!!
The head waters of the Tennessee are on the short list this fall. I have heard some great things about the Tennessee Grand Canyon and wanted to experience the sights myself. We made it to Wilson Lake last year before heading south for the winter.
If we get there.. I will give you a call and we can share a few cold ones on the aft deck.

P.S. Do you have your Surface Pro for the Stan Meeting. I remember getting the memo we should bring it.
