By Ted Grussing
… so at about 1:30AM my head was drooping and I did not get the missive out last night … head is dropping again, but will get one out. I like the agility of the Pelican in flight , cranking and banking preparing for a rapid descent to the water far below him and the gull quietly cruising overhead, perhaps waiting to see what the pelican gets … or not … the constant search for food to sustain life … and some fun cruising when basic needs fulfilled. Life is a joy to observe whatever the species …
A very full day today with friends from Tennessee over this morning and then friends from Minnesota this afternoon and evening; Brian and I got a nice flight in this afternoon and turning final to R3 we looked a lot like the pelican in the photo as we dropped in for full stop landing ahead of a Skyhawk and a King Air … greased the landing and rolled off the runway and into the north tie down area. Thence to Basha’s to pick up mess of chicken breasts to marinate and prepare for the ISO 100 group tonight. Another fun gathering of the group tonight and some truly masterful shots by everyone.
Time for a wrap before I crash on the keyboard. Another wonderful day underway … enjoy the day you are given today … like why not? You are breathing and you are alive … make the moment count before there are no more!
Cheers
Ted

But let me smile each day
