I'm really a little worried that if Jay get's caught up in this Ebay selling
kick, that Mary and the kids might be next!

There goes all the neat decor at the "Inn", :-)


Heyyyy... :-)

Nah, most of it's been donated by guests and enthusiasts. Some of it

would
fetch a pretty penny on Ebay, I'm sure -- but we're pretty attached to the
stuff...

(And it's pretty attached to us. To prevent theft, I've used some unique
attachment methods -- some of it may prove impossible to remove!)

Hmm... and I've never thought about what a great selling point to fellow
pilots a woman that is already rated might be!

Ever read "The Kidnapping of Red Chief"? Jay would go bankrupt. :-)

George, George . . . it's "The RANSOM of Red Chief" . . . by O Henry.

Well, I read it in high school. There are lots of other details of that period I'm
sure I've forgotten. :-)

But you'll remember, dear, the point of the story was that the kid kidnapped
was so rotten, the crooks eventually paid a tidy sum to be rid of him. I can
testify that Jay's boy is pleasant enough that he'd require special training to
take part in such a scam...though he'd be smart enough to see the fun in doing
it!

Yeah, he's smart enough to be a real danger to us all... ;-)

But he DID do his first touch & go last night. Well, I took over at about
20 feet AGL, but he would have lived, IMHO, had I let him land.

Whether we could have used the plane again, well, that's another question...
