Being Retired now, I thought that it was time for a new name to this Blog |
This week I'm in Colorado Springs delivering a class to the Air Force Academy. The odd thing is, I had one student, named Will Smith. Yep, that's right, I was teaching a class to Will Smith this week. He looks a little heavier in person that he does in the movies, must be the camera or something. Wish I had a camera like that, I'd take a ton of pictures of me! But it's been a good week. Could not believe I left Chicago at 3 degrees or so, and landed here in Colorado, the land of mountains and snow, and it was 61 degrees! I didn't have to wear a coat all week, which is always nice in December. ![]() I had an interesting lunch today too, not because of what I ate, but because of the restaurant I was at. It's called 'The Airplane Restaurant', part of it is a building, but connected to the building is an old KC-97 Tanker! You could either eat in the terminal (building next to the plane), or in the plane itself. So of course I had lunch in the plane. While waiting on my food, I toured the cockpit and took a few pictures. Very interesting, and definitely an 'out of the norm' place to eat. Well, this is my last trip for 2013. Can't imagine why, since there's still two more weeks left this year. I've traveled 26 weeks this year, delivering 27 classes. Been to quite a few places I love, and them some. This year included trips to El Paso, San Diego, Toronto, Seattle, Texas (2 or 3 times), Florida, North Carolina, Spokane, Great Falls Montana, and others I can't remember. In going to these places, I met many wonderful people, but the best part was meeting a couple of my WDC friends this year!. I wonder what 2014 will bring, besides Juneau Alaska, Nova Scotia, Alabama, Washington DC, and Kansas, which are currently on my schedule. Til next time, y'all remain warm, and have a very Merry Christmas! |
