Plus, it's the only way to find out what the news is in Mt. Pilot.

Yeesessss.

The only thing more fun than reading a Vlad trip report is dragging out old photo albums to see what hair was....

Vlad - you should write a book someday, with lots of pictures. You could title it "$200 Free Lunches (and $100 Haircuts)". John Purner might might let you see it on his $100 Hamburger website.

Well.....

I personally use Ray's Mens Styling just off OBT in Orlando.

Best haircut in town - free advise given, as the sign says.

Ben and Jen run a fine establishment, however from Yorkshire England, it is a way to fly.

We stop our Orlando's at the end of October, so now, I kind of look a little shaggy.

Off to MCO tomorrow, the season starts, so will be sat in his chair on Saturday. Will try get some snaps - fly back Saturday, then fly back on Tuesday for Sun n Fun.

That was my first thought. My second was, he never told us how many geese there were in the pond. At 2 lbs of poop per day, I was interested in calculating the fecal coliform load on the watershed...well not really but thoughts of old jobs die hard.

Glad you finally got that unruly mop trimmed. Now you will be able to get a much better sunburn on the top of your noggin at SNF.

Vlad, couple things:

1.The celebrity house you flew over was Governor Valcik's weekend retreat.

2. If you don't speak Dutch, the barber is pretty quiet.

and C: You walked past the world famous Smoketown Diner, fly in anytime and have a good meal for 5 bucks. The best kept secret in airport eats. 10 of us from 58M (cecil co., md) converged on it last sunday for 5 buck meals. Reasonable fuel also (for you all that buy that stuff).

Glad to keep everyone entertained. The haircut itself was $13 plus $3 tips but logistics behind it took two weeks and ate couple hundred in gas. I would call it a $313 haircut
