We fly to airports all over the country in support of our aviation-themed
hotel...


Jay, did you quit your newspaper job and buy that hotel just so you
could go flying all over the country and write it off?


Well, it sure as heck wasn't to get rich!

Yep, that is the boonies, and it is a little over a half hour from where I
live.

Could you not have flown partway, and driven (rental car) the rest, or is
their no other plane?

Being able to fly as much as you want is my definition of "rich."

Well, Sunday the weather between NJ and VA was good, but was forecast
to get worse on Monday and Tuesday (which it did). After driving
through some fairly heavy rain on Monday in NE Georgia, I'm actually
glad we didn't try to go.

The club has 3 planes, but only 2 are really meant for x-country, and
unfortunately the other one was booked at various times throughout the
week.
