Only 6 months?

Really, that’s not very long to update a blog is it?

Figured it’s about time to give everyone (all 2 of you) an update on what’s been going on around these parts. First:

1) Cheryl and I are now certified open water scuba divers. The class and then warm-water certification dive in Utah was a lot of fun, I recommend it – though it is kinda expensive if you do it all at once. A1 Scuba does a good job.

2) Because of the above, we are headed to Roatan in April to get our scuba on.

3) We got a new dog, her name is Kara. She’s very needy.

4) I got my loan to finish up the airplane parts – so I have a panel being built, seats/interior being created, a prop being carved, and other misc parts and pieces on the way.

5) The 66 Comet is doing good, it’s actually really easy to start even when it’s cold out. Now I just need to either sell it or find someone who can fix the few rust spots on it – and maybe get the windows to roll up nice an easy.

6) I’ve read a ton of books so I’m just going to highlight the ones I liked: A Canticle for Leibowitz (post Armageddon sci-fi), Fate is the Hunter (semi-autobiographical early airline pilot days), World War Z (zombies!), Deadhouse Gates (part 2, fantasy)

7) I’m also finishing up my Instrument Rating to add to my Private Pilot’s license – hopefully I’ll be all done by the end of March.

8) Speaking of all done, my reserve enlistment with the Colorado Air National Guard was up in December, so now I’m just an IRR (inactive ready reserve) member. Haven’t had to do anything with that so far, but I’m wondering if they expect us to report in every once in awhile?

9) Some cool stuff going on at work, like: developer.mapquest.com

And I think that’s it! See, easy.
