Sometimes, it’s more than awesome

You know, it’s not all horrible over here.

I spent Monday on the road, heading out to go see another unit. It just so happens that we went by air, and that I got the best seat in the house, and that our path took us over the marshes. Dumb luck on my part, but it made for a pretty awesome day.

No, that’s not a road but a waterway.

See? Boats, not terrorists. Not even speeding boats, just boats.

Want to know the best thing about today?

Ann and Diana (Diana and Ann?) and their nine boxes / 45 lbs of love. It made my day.

Wouldn’t it be AWESOME if every flight you made was just sight-seeing?? 😀
