that's the one!!!

i think the color of his is significant- perhaps it was the way the trainers were painted?  he posted pictures on facebook of some sort of rally in Wisconsin for these things, and there must have been a hundred of them- and i'm only slightly exaggerating.  I was giggling that any one of them could have flown away with anyone else's bird and hardly noticed!!!

Yeah, it's basically a Cessna 172, the kind I used to fly around.  Those guys had some guts flying them in combat.

4 weeks from today, we will board a plane to Lima, Peru. We will board the cruise ship, and end up in Miami on April 5. Really looking forward to passing through the Panama Canal. It's a bucket list thing for me. Can't wait.

Good thing I'm never going to visit Turkey. I don't trust that country.

We're going with our neighbor, who is Turkish, and visiting Istanbul and that local area some.  It should be interesting.  I'll let you know if we make it back.

One item is that departing flights for western Europe all seem to leave at 4:15 AM.

So, we have this cheapie "First Alert" document safe thing where we store the usual stuff.  The wife put her passport in it yesterday and locked it and I later in the day discover the batteries are dead.  OK, where are the keys?  And of course we moved since I had anything to do with it.  After searching high and low, she did locate the keys, and life is good.  I kept one of them.  I don't think we have much fire risk here, the building is concrete and steel and has a sprinkler system, which probably would cause more damage than a fire.  Burglars?  Tough to get into the place.

That was a bad feeling for a while with a trip coming up and a locked up passport.

safe deposit box at the bank is where I look for things as important as as passport

after that it's anyone's guess

I saw a gig about the ten most important games next season and excerpted a few that are not "played every year":

Auburn - UNC - The Heels should be pretty good.  Game in ATL.

Clemson at Notre Dame - duh.

Ohio State at Oregon

UGA at Bama - in September, early game.

FSU at Boise State

The rest were SEC West matchups, meh.  UGA plays UVA in ATL Game One which is a bit of a something.

BYU plays at Minnesooota next fall

I'm curious to see if the Gophers can keep winning
