Hi Everybody!
(((HUGS)))



Ohhhhh, that is soooo cool. I’d LOVE to ride in one of those babies! ๐ค
They made me wear a parachute. LOL...The plane was older than I was.
It’s a T-6 Trainer.

Greetings to all at the Canteen!
To all our military men and women, past and present,


It’s awesome! I’ve never worn a parachute, and I wouldn’t even have the first clue on how to use it, but I’d do it just so I could go up. LOL!
Howdy, PRO.
Have you and your son headed out to the shooting range yet?
Today was the day son & I went out to the range and it was a sunny & warmish day too, lots of fun!
As a cool bonus, some of our city's police department in full tactical gear were on adjacent firing lanes doing their training too when we arrived so we waved at them and they smiled & waved back!
We got Wendy's for lunch on the way out there.
Howdy, luvie.
Glad you had a nice day down there. It wasn’t too shabby here - - sunny and 65 degrees while I was out and about this afternoon.
Sounds like a banner day y’all had! Glad nothing came up to postpone your plans.
Picking today to go was perfect timing!
Not nearly as exciting here but I did get out to run some errands. Nice sunny day with 65 degrees to enjoy. A LOT better than yesterday’s windy 42 and Monday’s windy 39!
Hey there, radu!
It was a great day. Not too warm...not to frigid. It got up to 78. I only wore a 3/4 sleeve t-shirt with my leggings tonight to class. Sunflower leggings...I couldn’t resist them. LOL!
Glad it was warmer there, too. You finally got to get some of your errands run. Yay!

Every year when I was a flagger for the crop dusters in my early teens we had a instructor pilot that would take us up once a year in a souped up Stearman two seater. With most of the flaggers he was nice. But he was an instructor pilot who flew fighters in WW II and Korea and had taught both my father and mother to fly and he always did a number on me. He even took me through a lomcovรกk. It’s like going straight up in a car and then losing lift and direction when the thing falls in any direction it wants to. It was fun but disorienting.
