Live in a place where it doesn't get down to -45C in the winter, that would be great!!

Hey Dave,
I'm very close to the end of the Appalachian trail. (Mt. Katahdin) You better stop in or I'll switch the signs and you'll end up in Canada!


Welcome to Baxter State Park

I just came through there Saturday and Sunday. It certainly looks majestic this time of year. :hmm I ended up in Perth-Andover, New Brunswick Canada. :shock: Hey Dave! He's not kidding! You better stop! :rofl:

Fly in a Blue Angles Jet wheeee ! Gin

Gin - I have been on aircraft carriers out at sea and there is nothing like having a jet blast off a few yards from you .. you feel it through your whole body!
Never did get to fly in one though ... :(

Were you in the Navy Dorothy? I was in the Army. I spent some time guarding an airfield overseas. Yes, having a jet blast off right next to you is pretty amazing. We had f-18s and a-10s going nearly constantly... and then there were the cargo jets. I love planes and flying, but never have had the opportunity to be on anything other than a passenger plane. I wanted to be a military pilot, but my vison was too bad :(

My brother-in-law is a Navy captain (- he use to fly S3 that are now decommissioned) .. The benefits of having him are wonderful! ;) I also have a niece and her husband in the Army .. they fly Blackhawk helios .. God speed to him as he will be home this fall! He is serving in Iraq as I type this ...
It is a great honor that our boys are protecting us from so far away ... Boo Yah!
