Default Dawn Patrol pre-Mother's Day

Well, since my 88 year-young mom is living full time with us, I don't get as much air time as I would like. Long trips are out for now. I did get mom to go the other day for a short flight. I'm just glad she's still around to go with me.

Hopefully, I can get her to go again for Mother's Day.

I am mostly relegated to Dawn Patrol, not that I'm whining or anything. I snuck in .6 this morning. Left home at 6am, back home by 7am. SWEET


First pic, a few days ago....with mom.



DAWN PATROL (This morning)

Default Dawn Patrol

Hey Gary.....Nothing wrong with "Dawn Patrol"....my favorite time of day to fly!!! Hey...my wife and I come to Venice occasionally to check up on her 83 year old aunt who lives there off of Jacaranda. Maybe I can get up with you next time if you need a recon officer aboard for the "dawn patrol"....at lease would like to come and see your bird.

Will do Vlad. I want to see what keeps you (and others) up there all winter long.

Default Frame it!

I love that first picture. I just hope I'm doing as well as your mom when I'm 88!

Thanks Louise. And, yes, that photo is going in a frame.
