Lots going on
Spring is in the air! A few weekends ago we had an unbelievable amount of snow. Piles in parking lots where the snow was cleared were like twenty feet high. Now it’s nowhere to be seen! (however the rivers don’t know what to do with all that water). We’ve had a couple of 60 degree days already. I don’t know about you but I love spring. It means all that warm weather is ahead. And the days are getting longer. Heather’s mom, sister and stepdad are visiting this weekend…Ellen Dave and Holly. It is always fun when they visit. They used to visit us quite a bit back in Columbia too. It’s kind of a tradition. We have a one bedroom apartment and we all just kind of hang out. Everyone sleeps all over the place. We make it work. One time in Columbia we had as many as nine guests staying in our little one bedroom apartment. I put a tent on the porch and slept out there that time. School has been really busy. I feel like I have been studying nonstop. I took my Instrument flight class final a couple weeks ago. I have been studying as much as I can for general and airframe orals and practicals (for the FAA exam…which I am taking March 27th!!) then after that I will study for the written exam, then the instrument written exam. Then a little breather until July when our next oral and practical exams will be. I doubt there will really be much of a breather though because I may get to start flying pretty soon which will take a lot of study and energy. Its busy but its a good busy. I feel like I am learning a lot.
