    That was great and it brought back some great memories of my flying with a great and generous crop duster when I was a 13 year old. It was a similar experience but it was in a Travel Air 4000. I have written about my friend, Tom, and his generosity. I have an editor looking at my book now and I hope that I can fool someone into publishing it.

    I'm an amateur at this book stuff and the learning curve is steep but I'm gathering all of my artwork and photos that relate to the words. I'll probably end up doing it myself somehow because it is only 77,000 words, 100 pages and growing because I keep dredging up more stuff out of my head. Thanks.

    Hard to type with the smile and tear in my eye.
    Line of the day: "I got this"

    I would like to place an order for Bob's book (autographed) right now.
