To Alpha Omega... whoever you are....

Thank you!

We, those who land out way too often, salute you!

It is due to your efforts that the rest of us will be able to tell our
'Golden Retievers' ... "At least I'm not as much trouble as Alpha
Omega!"

Yup and 2NO even forgot to tell you about the nighttime visitors AO had. He
landed in a very remote valley (no ranches or lights with mountains on both
sides and the Luke AFB bombing range on its western edge) that as it turns
out is a conduit for immigrants from south of the border heading north on
the only dirt road for many miles around. I think he estimated hundreds of
people with some on bikes and a couple of trucks but most on foot. It would
be hard enough to sleep in a cold cockpit without that just outside the
canopy. Just imagine what those migrants must have thought as they came
across the moon shimmering off a shiny white glider with a human figure
inside wrapped in his canopy cover. The word "alien" takes on several
meanings.
