| I go planespotting, mostly due to a lack of rail action nearby. Course, my planespotting is normally limited to Cessnas and Gulfstreams since that's about all that flies into our local airport. |

I don't mind going nowhere as long as it's an interesting path.

Mike, nice rig! We looked at motor homes but decided to stay with a trailer until the kids are grown and gone. Our current trailer sleeps 9 and has two bedrooms so it's easy to have privacy when it's needed and we have plenty of room for all the junk "everyone" needs to go camping.

Gee....I don't have all that stuff.......what I do have is a loving wife of the 32 years, two great children (both married and very sucessful in life) and a refound energy for helping others thru a resaleshop/food pantry for the needy.
Great life. |

I work, alot, and alot more. But mostly with this one jet.
Matt, Portage is near the tunnels correct? If so I plan on visiting out that way in October. Can't wait to get back to PA and visit family and friends, then go railfanning, even tho it is Norfolk Southern, better than what I have here in Okinawa. |

Cool Stuff Guys.
Carl , I think you have the ideal life.
Walter , do you get to ride it once and a while? Close as I got was to touch a F117 at Holloman AFB while putting cable into the hangers when they arrived new. I love those T38's out there as well. The Germans have the Tornado's and they are extreamly load aircraft and kinda ugly.

| I spend most of my time writing software. In the little free time I have I try to spend as much as possible with my wife and daughter (gymnastics, dancing, swimming, it's something almost every night) and don't really get to work on the trains until everyone else goes to bed. Good thing I'm a night owl. |
