Less than a month until I am trapped on a cruise ship with my in laws. Looking forward to it. Been playing a lot of Need For Speed Shift on XBOX Live. Really fun to play with 70 year old geezers from Iowa and 10 year old punks in England….at the same time. The voice [...]
It snows 3 inches in Dallas last week. Most of it melted. I was happy. Then Sunday night I was assigned to fly to Cleveland, Ohio….where it was snowing non-stop. It’s going to snow again in Dallas today. I’m done with it. Above is a view from my office. Taken at 36,000 feet coming in [...]

This blog follows my day to day life at a major United States regional airline. I typically post 10-20 blogs a month. Prior to flying I spent 6 years in the IT world fixing computers and diagnosing/troubleshooting software.

This has also been the most rewarding time of my life. I hope you enjoy my blogs.
