Primarily working as VPA here at TWS. I love my job!! Trying to keep up with the Grandkids. Tyler is 23 and working at Fed Ex Ground. Amanda and Jacalyn are 19 and both working. Andrew is 16 and a Junior doing home schooling with K12. Faye is kept scrambling with running the girls to/from work, taking me to my Doctors appointments, going to therapy, shopping, etc. I also read a lot. Usually have several, mostly fiction, books availble. Just finished "The Haj" by James Michener. Things haven't changed in that part of the world in thousands of years. Wear compression stockings all day or put on my leg compressors in the evening when I'm done with TWS. Other than that, it's pretty quiet around the old homestead.
Marvelous airplane! Gobs of power and reliable as the day is long. Probably the Gooney Bird of the Jet era. Loved the flying and all the places we visited. Would still be flying them if possible. Sad to see most of them are getting chopped up at DM. What a waste. Never flew a B model. 2000 hours in the A
