Blair, Samantha and Ian
Rand & Linda
Sam's engagement party last Spring
It's cooling down here in New Hampshire, the leaves have fallen, the migratory fowl that populate our marsh have mostly flown south and the aroma of wood smoke and snow fill the air. Another year has passed and I have much to be grateful for. They include our new home, our many family members and good friends whose company we enjoy. Thanks to all of you who follow my airline adventures and take a moment to comment. I wish the best for all of us and hope that you enjoy this holiday season.
Sincerely,
Rand
The cockpit is comfortably warm, the coffee is good and only the sound of air past our windscreen at 500 knots, lets us know that we're in motion high above the worlds largest, deepest ocean. This is a moment to savor before returning to VHF radio communications, descent and approach procedures and the reality of an LAX arrival. Tranquility will soon be replaced by work; but work that is enjoyable as more than two-hundred trusting souls snooze in deep sleep behind us.
My friend Bill from Texas, a former Braniff pilot and NWA retiree via Republic Airlines, just sent me this link. For those of us who enjoy history and Charles Lindbergh it's wonderful. Thanks Bill.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family too Rand - may it be a peaceful one!

Your looking fit there Rand. You been on the tread mill or something?
ReplyDeleteThe biggest thing I miss about living in the USA is TG. Us Canucks sure could learn a thing or two about how to do TG the proper way like our American cousins.
All the best during the holidays Rand!
