Happy Hour With Friends 12/4/2009

What a day!  We began at 6:30am with an "hour walk" with Vicky and then we proceeded to Old Ranch for breakfast and 18 holes of golf.  After golf, we had a glass of wine and headed for home to change so we could come back to Old Ranch for Happy Hour and dancing to Rose Mallett before heading to Brea for the Alley Cats Christmas Concert!!


Dressed for the season

"Hangar Flying" at its best

Did you know? - A hangar is a building where aircraft are maintained or stored, and pilots “hang around." Maybe the hangar is where that phrase came from. It is obviously where “hangar flying” originated. In the early days of airplane flying, when the weather was bad, the gang sat around the coffee pot and talked about flying. The topics of these informal gatherings ranged from regulations, techniques, instruction, and new ideas to Attaboys and Awshits. That is what we want this column to be: an informal opportunity for us to exchange information. There may be times when we mention names—for praise and criticism.
