Just for the halibut, I thought I would take a look at good ol'
rec.aviation, and was heartened to see some names I still recognize!
Glad to see y'all are still here!

Mary and I are now in sunny South Texas, on an island in the Gulf of
Mexico called Mustang Island. We've created an aviation themed hotel
here called Amelia's Landing, and are now flying an experimental
2-seat RV-8A, having sold our good ol' Pathfinder ("Atlas") last
month, after 11 years of ownership.

If you're interested, check us out he www.AmeliasLanding.com It's
quite a bit nicer here than Iowa! lol

I will pop back to see if anyone is still alive and/or remembers me!


And hello to you!

I see you in place to place online. Went and got wise with all the
homebuilders and got the RV grin, I see. Good on you.

I, on the other hand, am almost 3 months into time sitting in a
wheelchair from a fall off of a roof of a house I was building. Almost
killed me, literally. 8 broken ribs, deflated lung, fused vertebras T3
through T9, and broken C1 with over 2 months in a halo. Broken pelvis
which is what is keeping me from walking. Lucky to have almost all of
the feeling and movement in all of my extremities, and hope to make a
close to full recovery.

2013 is a year to put behind me, but I am most thankful to not be
pushing up daises.

Sad to hear.
I blame the 13 in the year for your accident and look forward to your
full recovery
