Hiking to Pemby Launch

 

We found the road too greasy so we hiked the last 200 meters to launch. This is yours truly making his way to the top only to be denied because it was too strong.

I Wonder Why

It seems that I am posting less and less as the years go by. And I wonder why? To busy? to tired? to bored?. Well I'm not bored so it must be a little of the other two. Life as I know it has been a bit over the top this fall. And the summer was not what i expected but hey is it ever? Lord this seems less like my home with each passing year. 52 and so much more to do.

Wow Good Stuff

Delta Dave

I lost a good friend a few days back. He was a fellow paraglider pilot. We flew many times together. I had known him for several years and come to like him a lot. He left us all with a lot of questions. Some we may never know. You where loved Dave. Sadly I'm not sure he ever understood that.
Rest in Peace Dave

We are relaxing and winding down or visit with Mom & Ralph. We head to a small town in Saskatchewan called Kindersley in the morning. On the go again.

Lots of crazy weather here in Rivers. Shot this from the car window just before the rain hit.

We gathered for the second annual Fly in at Willie & Sigrig's in Clearwater B.C. during the last week-end of June and had fun. Here is photo from launch with Sigrid in the forground and brother Derek in the air

Time Flies

Wow July arrives already. This Spring/summer has been a busy/rainy one. It's Sunday morning and I am looking at the overcast skies and not feeling like doing too much. Listening to a little Among Thorns It's nice to be home with Jackie and not have much to do. But I understand that time has a way of filling it self. And so here we go...

Found on the black board where I work

If I could see me through your eyes..
I could see me without my lies.
