Foggy day in CMH

1/8 mile visibility and no one going anywhere yet this am. Another airline day full of airline delays.

NYC in September

From the south - southwest, looking up the Hudson River, Manhattan on the upper right and The Statue of Liberty in the middle left of the picture

Back to the grindstone II

In line at New York's LaGuardia, waiting for takeoff. Not much to see, just American Airlines' tailpipe and one of the best skylines in the world starting to light up at dusk.

What a gorgeous country we live in. This weekend I am in Jackson Hole, WY for a co-worker's wedding. Just a three hours' drive north is Old Faithful in the Yellowstone National Park. It was gorgeous. On the way up and back, we crossed the continental divide. More pictures to follow.

Painful gas prices

Do u believe it? I use premium and it's 4.15 a gallon locally. Painful. I even drove the speed limit today just to save on gas. Maybe i'll subject the Tahoe to regular for a few weeks.

Catching up

Caught up with a friend tonight. Had a great time.

How about some cliches that hold true:
Sometimes in life we can be so narrow-minded or short-sighted.
Live life to the fullest.
Don't burn bridges.
Life is good.
Don't sweat the small stuff.

We all mistakes in life. Some even involve friends. Mistakes made with friends can be forgiven. Only friends can forgive.

Up coming events

I have to go back to work in 10 days. I have been off for 2.5 months and it's going to be difficult for sure. The attached picture is a pic of the simulator that we use to regain currency and profiency. I have 2 days in the sim, 2 days off and then back to the grind of the skies. I will be on call for a part of the month and I am certainly not looking forward to that stretch of time. I will however be looking forward to making a regular paycheck again. Just in time for the Holiday season.
