As to your question, very easily. Did you get married before you learned
to fly? What happens if you get bitten =afterwards=? How powerful is
love? Maybe she'll fly too (it's been known to happen)...

No, we were married ten years before I was able to muster the wherewithal to
get my ticket. But Mary knew my love of aviation, and had attended Oshkosh
(and been just as enamored with it as I) with me 13 times by then.

She likes motorcycles (had her own bike, till the kids came along), rock and
roll, and good beer, too. AND she works 70 hour weeks at the inn,
essentially without pay.

Yes, I know -- I'm a very lucky guy!

:-)

But I know way too many guys at the airport who fly despite -- rather than
with -- their family. It's one of the saddest aspects of GA.
