2014: New Year’s Revelations (Yes, you read that correctly)

According to good ole urbandictionary.com , New Year's Revelation is defined as:   While those definitions may be amusing, I do believe they highlight how resolutions ultimately fail. In reflecting back in 2012, my resolution was - " Resolution – 2012 – Keep It Simple – Remove the Noise " .

Last we[…]
Flight up to grab dinner in Asheville and a bottle if wine

Flight up to grab dinner in Asheville and a bottle if wine

Received a phone call from Randy asking if I had interest in a $100 hamburger. A short 2 hours later, we were airborne up to Asheville from PDK. The weather was crisp, the plane had a great climb rate, and we arrived in around 55 minutes which is normally a 3 hour drive. A wonderful day to support today's New Year Revalation - Share spontaneity. --- If you look just to the right of the main prop blade showing, that is Biltmore Mansion.   Landmark has officially moved in Asheville.  Note - s[…]

It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset."     - Crowfoot, Blackfoot Warrior - http://hiatus4life.com/ Thanks to a good friend for sharing this one --- my love of quote remains ever so strong.  --- Reflecting back when I enjoyed living in the land of Aloha.  Enjoying the sounds of the waves in Honolulu.   Enjoying […]
A Retrospective Look at 9/11, Eleven years later

A Retrospective Look at 9/11, Eleven years later

Enjoying Helen today and as it approaches to 1am, I have spent a few minutes of time reflecting on that day in history, 9/11. A day that for our generation will be paramount similar to where were you during Pearl Harbor or when JFK was shot. No doubt you remember where you were when you heard the news, but my story I often try not to think about as it all seems too surreal to fathom. My good friend is a flight attendant for United Airlines, at the time we had all plans to visit NYC, explore the […]
