I started my first post-OE trip a couple days ago. It’s been a typical World adventure so far. Tuesday, I went to the airport for a 6:00 p.m. departure from Manchester to Philadelphia to Norfolk. On the way to Philly, we diverted to Allentown for weather (to get more fuel). … Continue reading
Shortly before our California trip, my phone did a goofy thing and wouldn’t turn on. It took me several attempts to get it working. It worked fine through the trip and then started acting up again after returning home. Given I’m out of a contract, I thought I’d start looking … Continue reading
Edi, Edison, Erin and I flew out out to California on the 13th, over two weeks ago now. We flew into Los Angeles and drove to Fresno and back, spending about a week in Fresno. The trip came about in a kind of unlikely way. In the fall every year, … Continue reading

Next week, the fam and I are going on a vacation of sorts. I’m not sure how many people make a family vacation out of a visit with a terminally ill friend, but that’s exactly what we’re doing. When I finished up my type rating, the forecast for going out … Continue reading
The music wasn’t all that kept me busy last week. A couple of the days last week, I kinda took over as the primary teacher in the house. Normally, Edi does most of the actual teaching of our kids. But there are some things she’d prefer for me to teach, … Continue reading
So obviously I’ve been busy… What with? Quite a lot actually. I decided to split my busyness into two entries so here goes.
