Honestly, there was a point where I was ready to just hop in the car and drive the 8 hours thinking it wasn't going to happen! I gave myself plenty of time to do that, the hotel was pre-paid, there's always a Plan B. Plenty of sleep the night before, had breakfast then threw some … Continue reading The flight – Bay Area to Bend, Oregon
This will be the first time flying up there solo, see how it goes?? The other day I went to practice touch & goes in the club plane - something I really haven't done for awhile.

Being a creature of habit, this whole Peet's coffee fiasco has thrown me totally off. There is still $10 left on my app, I'm too cheap not to use it, I'll never go back to my daily place the last 20 years ever again. I don't know what happened to Peet's? It's slow service and … Continue reading New Routine
