Above the noise of the wind blowing through the cabin and across my microphone (we were flying with the doors off) I'm pretty sure I heard my instructor say something about 'Sierra'. I'll have to ask him about his exact job title next time we fly.

 

Copy.

You were flying with the doors off?

I want to fly with the doors off.

 

Thanks for the clarification (and your service)! I put in "National Nasal Radiation Museum" in Google and all I got was a lot of stuff about nose conditions. Was it type auto-correct or is that some Naval in-house slang?

 

Thank you.

Naval in-house slang, sir.

 

Sunshine and showers on the Heath today. I didn’t bother snapping the showers.

Depending on which of my ramblings you have read, you may be aware that my husband has Glioblastoma (brain cancer), really nasty shit. When he was still able to work he was a marriage and family therapist (LMFT). Something he was really good at, such was his passion for helping others. He always had an orchid on his desk and would bring them home after the blooms had fallen. Me having a green thumb and a perfect spot for them they re-bloom fairly regularly. This year we'll have seven and these are the first three.

 

Best of luck to your husband and thanks for the beautiful pictures.
