I do like the outdoors and nature. I dont like the naive view. I like the real thing. Sometimes it can be scary and sometimes it hurts. I still like nature. I like wilderness. Camping in North Georgia is quite nice. There is a alot going on as usual, at work and at home. I think I am going to sell the humvee. I dont need 5 cars. I have some more work to do to it, but after I get what I have planned done. Its gonna hit the road. It will still take me awhile with my current level of productivity and the number of projects I have in flight. I will be up in NY again soon probably and I have travel plans currently to Maine, New Hampshire and Japan. I am making vacation plans mostly in the Caribbean.

I am planning meetings in England and Finland. I continue to figure things out. One of the items "I seem to have regressed on" is that when I was a small child I was exposed to Brazilian music.

It is pretty weird as I am get more advertising in Portuguese on the web as part of my normal experiences. I have finished my Portuguese 101. I start 102 shortly. I snapped the pic of the geese through the windshield of the plane at the departure threshold of Runway 31 in Winder, Georgia. I am waiting to take off. Looks like I am about 17th for departure! I had the hardest test of my life (so far) this past week. My "checkride" reached deep. I appreciate the growth it induced. There were a lot of "yes sirs" from me. I did really well in the debrief. He was really working me hard during the rid...

The visibility was great today in the air. It is really nice when you can take off in Gwinnett county and see the North GA mountains clearly. As we move into fall we will see a lot more of these days. I like my new house a lot. I am making progress on the repairs the house needed, I have hired a landscaper, an interior designer and a few other folks. It saves a lot of time. I stopped in on a friend of mine that also recently bought a foreclosure. His house is considerably fancier than mine (understatement).
