Welcome to my wee bit of the ephemeral net! |
|
|
|
When I can, I'll post artwork, travel stories, links of personal interest and little bits about my family, friends and adventures. Feel free to poke around, if you like. Links to my pages are beneath the photo of my favorite airplane. |

This is a 1946 Swift, the civilian version of the P-51 Mustang, the plane that took out Hitler's air force through the skill and fortitude of some ace American pilots. This little beauty is owned by Roger, Melissa's Dad, who took me up for my first time to pilot an aircraft. Roger fairly well maxed out the scale on August 12th, 2006, when he taught me to steer a vintage plane over the lakes and mountains of New Hampshire. A remarkable and brave fellow, letting the blind boy take the stick, at one point only a couple of hundred feet above the ground! |
