There is a lot going on. It looks like a lot of changes are coming for this year. Things are all intertwined between work, aspirations, finance, goals, travel, and so on.
I have learned about 60 Chinese characters so far on my way to know about 1000. After I get a vocabulary of 1000 I can read a Chinese newspaper. It is a lot more fun than I thought it was going to be. It is a good exercise in patience and "doing the impossible." Just as I have said before I am not really sure what I will be doing next.
I went to the Marathon Hamfest this past week end as well as finally getting back in the air. Both were fun. The greatest thing about my flight lesson was that it was self-guided. I flew where I wanted to fly at the altitude and speed I wanted. It was exploring from the air. I went down around Deposit, N.Y. and the resovoir and generally flew around checking out new areas from the sky. I also had a great workout and I seem to be getting the move on the next level of my capabilities. I will be at a 22 minute 5k run shortly. Work is challenging and dynamic lately as there are new executives and all that goes with that. We shall see. The only things I know for sure is that I have a positive attitude and you can't keep a good man down, especially when he will do what ever it takes to meet objectives.
The truck picture is in Whitney Point NY. Trucks often hit this bridge. On this occasion he got stuck on the guradrails. I had to take a detour of probably 15 extra miles. We don't have many bridges down my way. The plan pics are of my instructor in another of his planes a "Champ". He was getting a bit of use out of it.
