Fair Weather is for Sissies!
Years ago, as a private pilot, I only piloted the airplane if the skies were clear and winds were light. They called me a “fair weather” pilot. I know – sissy-girl attitude, but I preferred easy-going to my destination with a trouble-free landing. That’s why I was partial to being the co-pilot for my “any…
Fair Weather is for Sissies!
Years ago, as a private pilot, I only flew if the skies were clear and winds were light. I was a “fair weather” pilot. I preferred easy-going to my destination with a trouble-free landing. I preferred being the co-pilot for my “any weather” husband who was confident and cautious, in any weather. He loved the…
This is Crazy! This is Awesome!

Day 15 of Photo Inspirations: What could be more exhilarating than being pulled up over 75 feet in the air with just a cord holding you up, and then DROPPED? Answer: Being pulled up over 75 feet in the air and dropped with your granddaughter by your side. Okay, I was the most mature one…
Let’s Swim Out to our Ship!
Sometimes we look at others, and see their successes, and we might think, “Why not me?” ********* And there are other times, we wish we could be bold enough to step out in faith — even be somewhat of a “Risk Taker”, regardless of what the outcome might be. ********* BUT, then, there are those defining…
