A happy day for himself

I ask you my friends .... is that a happy face or what?


Many many (well two, which often feels like many many) months ago, himself,  King Richard, celebrated another birthday, for which we are aways delighted and gleefully doing the "happy dance".

To celebrate said natal day his son Patrick (himself an air traffic controller) hired his friend, a pilot, to fly his Dad to the destination of his choice for lunch.... His highness the King is "all about" all things aeronautical and didn't really care too much about the lunch or the destination, it was all about the getting there, getting there way up high where the birdies fly .... lets just fly fly fly








Not so quick there your highness .... first and most importantly a pre-flight inspection must be done ... check things in the aircraft, check things under the aircraft and check the oil ..... 

then ....


YOU, your highness can pull the plane out of  its hangar .... 


and finally, after all this work is done you will go up up up and away


to Martha's Vineyard for a delightful, delectable, enjoyable, love filled lunch ....

Sorry this is late. We had to attend a few funeral the last three days.
The photos are amazing. I feel so sorry for those in that area. The Quechee Bridge is such a sad picture. Why do they have to wait until 2013 to start repairs? Amazing though how quickly some of the business are back in operation.
Happy belated birthday to King Richard! What an awesome birthday gift. Glad he enjoyed his day.
