Today was a MUCH better day (Birthday do-over)

So yeah.  Today was a MUCH better day.  Even though I had to sit through meetings all day, I did not have a squeaky chair.  Not only that but we got an extended lunch break and even stopped 2 hours early today!

Besides that, I got to FLY in a freakin' BIPLANE today.  No kidding!  http://biplaneairtours.com/


I went up and the tour guide flew me around for about 15 minutes.  He gave me the chance to fly the plane and bank left and right.  He also had me climb some but I ended up stalling the plane and he took control again.  I kept hearing him say to keep going...keep going.  In hindsight, I think he wanted to stall the plane.  He then executed some tight turns, steep climbs, and some banking maneuvers.  I had a BLAST!

Then, I ended up going to that seafood place that I wanted to visit yesterday.  This time, I was coming from the opposite direction from the traffic and was able to cross over the bridge very easily.  I was able to sit on the pier with some very good food and watch the water flow downstream.  Very nice indeed!



I have to say, this was a good day.
