High Winds due NOT make for FUN Flying!!!





So air flight delays are a given in the winter, But 75 MPH winds that almost turn your plane ride in to a Air Show Barrel-Roll or a Loopy- Loopy can shake the seasoned of fliers. My trip from Chicago to Detroit was not just bumpy, but white knuckled. How long until Spring?? Wait Spring=Thunderstorms....... Hot Humid Summer anyone. I think I need to sign up for training in Australia. They are in Summer this time of the year.

The answer is "8128"

The question is what is the total number of air miles I traveled in one week ??  From Wednesday the 16th to Wednesday the 23rd, I traveled from Las Vegas to Akron Ohio back to Las Vegas  to Dayton Ohio.   We will have to see if I break this record later this year. 


BTW check out the new feature to the blog: "Where Am I ?? "  I am posting my GPS position  as I travel through the country.

We Have A New Addition to the Family!





Just an update..... We have a new addition to the family. Sunday we adopted a new K-9to the family. We were sent a email from Stephanie's sister about a little Shetland Sheepdog Sheltie that was in need of a good home. Just for some background My wife is very good at location good homes for many animals. I believe in 2007 there had been about 10 dogs that she help find a good home for. But this particular day, I happen to be home and we went to look at this little together.

Here is what was given to us in the email:
I was rescued with a badly broken back leg that had already healed in place too far to be saved, so I am now a little tripod. I don't even notice that it's gone anymore. I am still very fast and can keep up with my other canine companions and I also do fine with cats (mostly I just ignore them). I am very submissive and will always fall upside down at your feet for some loving. Once on your lap, I'll calm right down and snuggle close. I am only about 10 months old and I've been through a lot, so I am looking for that special family that will treat me like one of the kids.

One thing to keep in mind with me though is that I'm not a traveling kind of gal. I get car sick and must be in a kennel when in the car. I don't like to travel because of this. I'd rather have a back yard to play in than go to the dog park unless you live within walking distance of a park.

I am available for adoption:
SUNDAY 11:00am - 3:00pm
Petco, 2340 E Serene, Las Vegas, NV 89123



So we have a total of Three Dogs: Molly - the smart one, Kody- the OC dog(I should have named him MONK, and Cassie - the fast running tripod.


Well I am off traveling the country.....In fact I am posting this in the Chicago airport.
