Jefferson City, Missouri. I witnessed a guy almost choke in here. Guy the next booth started choking on a piece of food. Fortunately his buddy saw what was happening and quickly administered assistance. Luckily, I was nearly done eating.

This is a 1979 Cessna 172 airplane, tail N9002E, the very plane in which I am taking my flight lessons. She may not be much to look at, but as the saying goes, you dance with who brung ya. She's a nice plane to fly. I've had two full lessons thus far, so there's a way to go. I'll give periodic updates here, but if you want all the mind numbing technical details, head over to Rich's Quest For Flight. In the meantime, tailwinds!
Congratulations the the University of Wisconsin Men's Hockey team who just defeated Boston College by a score of 2-1 to win the NCAA Men's Hockey Championship in the finals held in Milwaukee. They now join the UW Women's Hockey team that won the NCAA Women's Hockey Championship a couple of weeks ago. Hey Minnesota, who woulda thunk Wisconsin would be tops in hockey, ya hey!

For some, this is all they can do to mark the grave of a loved one.
I'm pleased to announce that this photo was an editor's pic and was featured in Camera Toss (The Blog). It's a bit of an honor, to be sure. I need to get some more of these done.
In the not so distant past, life milestones for the ordinary person came and went without a whole lot of notice. Now, in the blog world, the word can be issued forth to a worldwide audience. Naturally there's no guarantee that the entire world sees this, in fact, this site's had just under 3000 hits in the nine months since I've started.
Anyway, to the purpose of this post. After many years, I finally have the opportunity and the resources to accomplish one of my life's goals. Starting Wednesday, I start down the path to earning my pilot's license. And to document the process, I have started a new blog, Rich's Quest For Flight. It'll be as comprehensive an account of the process as I can muster, serving two purposes. First, a personal journal made public, like most blogs, and second, to help future pilots following behind me.
It's quite a different purpose than this blog, which is why I started it. This Blog Title For Sale will continue with my photography, food reviews and poor attempts at wry wit. Thanks again to all of my loyal readers, and I look forward to serving you all for a long time to come.
