Here’s to “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness…”

David used to poke fun at this music box: "My mother put me to sleep with a war song!"
Awwww.
David would have turned 41 years old today, so to celebrate, I went flying! Flying photos forthcoming.

I was digging through David’s stuff to find something to wear to a theme party tonight, and I came across his fraternity gear from Penn State.
David shoved this in the back of the closet because he didn’t want to get any sticky questions from his Civil Air Patrol cadets.
It wasn’t for prescribing Nyquil, put it [...]

Open Cockpit AviatorDave

From sometime in the early 90s, the ’stache and beard phase. It’s a picture David had framed in our house, that I now look at every day in my house.
I’ve been thinking of how long it’s been since I’ve been in a (non-commercial) airplane. Looking back, it was only October 14 (Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome), but [...]

October 1

I use my passport quite often (especially at the U.S. border), and came across this page recently when I was at the Passport Office to renew it.
October 1, 2004, is when I first met David face-to-face. We were in some online forums together and until that point our communication [...]

From our photo archives, off David’s work computer. It’s taken me a long time to be able to go through our photos. I was putting something together for a wedding, and I stayed up all night just looking at photos. I’d been putting it off, then suddenly I couldn’t stop looking.
David didn’t like having his [...]

I used to dislike apples. The only ones I would eat were the occasional Granny Smith. I would avoid any red-skinned ones. Something about the texture put me off, and I found the apple a little… mealy. My apple horizon obviously needed some broadening.
Sometime over the past year, I slowly began to enjoy Royal Gala [...]

It Pays to Shop Around

David geeking out at the Apple Store at King of Prussia, PA. I was randomly searching for a photo that would go with this post, and picked this one. Then I looked at the date on the photo: March 19, 2005. I took this photo two years ago, to the day. How bizarre.

Pilot

July 2, 2005
Eglinton Street, Toronto
The bottom part said ‘insurance’.
Last week after ground school I was talking with another student pilot about our flying goals. Ground school is a mix of recreation, commercial, and airline pilot students in various stages of instruction and experience. A good third are already flying. Some have clear career paths for [...]

Ground School #4

It’s 8:30pm and we finally get a break, goodness gracious. I was getting squirrelly…
… it’s a lot of sitting in one day, with only a period of aggressive rush hour driving in between. Because of where I live, Wednesday means breaking a LOT of road rules to get from my underground parking to the [...]
