Is This a Vacation?

Today I am headed to Las Vegas for the week...playing the ponies at the Handicappers Tournament and Editing Flight For Safety. Saturday I'll be watching the Kentucky Derby on my 51st Birthday.


When I return... I will spend the week studying the A330 in preparation for recurrent training. And I'll be posting little tidbits of Airbus wisdom. 



My youngest daughter will be in Las Vegas on Saturday for a bachelorette party for her girlfriend. She is planning a very fun event for the bride to be and their friends, and said that I can join the fun. 

Can you guess what we will be doing? 

Enjoy the Journey!

    I was on the road the other day and saw the Ascot race track. Reminded me of you and Dick!

    I can't wait for the A330 wisdom tidbits! You know I like them!

    Las Vegas party... Anything is possible in Vegas. My sister one day was walking on the street and some guy came to her and her friend and gave them a ticket for a big show. Can't remember the artist, but he simply gave the ticket! And it wasn't a fake ticket (she thought it could be)!

    I hope you and your daughter have a blast at the party!



    Alex.
