Yesterday was AWESOME!

Category: Life

I totally forgot to make a post! But so much happened yesterday! In the morning, that iconic D-Day plane flew over my house and I got some fantastic photos of it! Later on, there was a fire on a nearby hill and it brought tons of planes and helicopters who managed to put it out in a couple of hours.  Even though a lot of houses and trees were in the way, I still managed to snap some photos of one ... » Continue Reading

A phenomenal day for plane-spotting!

Category: Life

Today was just amazing! There was so much air traffic, and I got the golden shot, of a plane I never expected.... So, first of all. There was a whole lot of military air traffic today. I didn't get to photo anything, unfortunately.  Two army planes were way too high up, at 25,000 feet. There were also two Blackhawks, but one was flying too far West and the other too far East. I could hear them but... » Continue Reading

I'm back, I think

Category: Life

Oh my goodness I haven't posted in nearly a month. Well I have good news and bad news. The good news is that I bought a camera and am now a proper plane-spotter, no longer taking crusty cell-phone photos of the planes that pass overhead.  The bad news? Well, the entire time I've been offline, I've been sick. Like really.... Really sick. Long story short, I was wrong about the food poisoning. I act... » Continue Reading

I keep getting food poisoning

Category: Food and Restaurants

I swear, this is like 3rd time this year. Well, I didn't get to go to the airport yesterday or today like I had planned. I think I mentioned this before, but I'm also skipping the SAR training this weekend. I'm going to just wait until the local one in August. My uniform won't be ready for this weekend anyway.  Still flying this Saturday, though. I mostly feel better but man that was an awful bout... » Continue Reading

Broski is BACK!

Category: Life

Oh man, it's been... Crazy. Okay, so, long story short. I had a pretty bad mental breakdown, but I got over it. The burnout I had from university was intense. I'm finally done, I've got a week off. But, I decided to take this week easy.... I'm going to the airport on Tuesday and Wednesday for the weekly CAP meeting and some SAR ground lecture, respectively.  The first SAR (Search and Rescue) lectu... » Continue Reading

A lot going on!

Category: Life

Wow, I completely forgot about this site for a while. I have been so busy that I haven't had a moment to just sit down and think. Right now I'm in my last 2 weeks of the semester, and seriously cracking down on my final assignments. I am so, so exhausted and just absolutely burnt out with my university work.  I've decided that I'm not booking any flights until my semester ends. I've just been so s... » Continue Reading

The "Night Hawk"!

Category: Life

Yesterday I came home late, so I forgot to make a blog entry. So, my CAP squadron does this event on the fifth Friday of a month (should there be one), called the "night hawk". It's a barbeque in the hangar. It was a lot of fun, and the food tasted delicious. We had a good turnout, and a lot of people didn't know that I had officially joined, so they were happy for me when they found out.  It felt... » Continue Reading

I think the kitty came to visit me.

Category: Dreams and the Supernatural

It has been 3 weeks since Maggie passed away. The first two weeks were very difficult. I've just been able to get back up on my feet and try to continue on with my life, accepting the reality of what's happened. But, through this, I've always kept her in my mind. Praying, and hoping, that if she could see me, she would know how much I truly cared for her, and how I thought of her as an angel. This... » Continue Reading

Flying hiatus is officially over!

Category: Jobs, Work, Careers

Oh man, the weather was so perfect today! It was beautiful! The golden sun rays were making the lake and hills just look like gold. There were so many clouds, it was breezy, and even though I felt really sore and tired before my flight, everything went superb.  I did the best I've ever done today. We did ground reference, and I learned how to use the trim tab today. For the first time ever, I was ... » Continue Reading

Started training today

Category: Jobs, Work, Careers

Today's a big milestone for the rest of my life! My first bit of training started today. It's just the bare minimums, like basic common sense sorta stuff. And it's all entirely online, for this section anyway. Just stuff about confidentiality, nondiscrimination, uniforms and customs, things like that.  I'm also making progress on my final two university assignments for this semester, and got enrol... » Continue Reading
