To play among the clouds as every child imagines. Why lay on your
back wishing you could cavort among the cottony forms when piloting
enables you to fulfill those dreams?


My all time favorite Peanuts from Charles Shultz; an absolute genius!


"Lucy, Linus and Charlie Brown were looking at clouds. Linus said one
formation reminded him of Steven being stoned in the Bible, another
reminded him of British Honduras, and another reminded him of the
sculptor Thomas Ekins. When Lucy asked Charlie Brown what he saw, he
said, "I was going to say I saw a duck and a horsie, but I changed my
mind."

They all look the same from the inside. :-)
While skydiving, I always consider it a special treat when I "inadvertently"
bust through
one of the scattered "white puffies" that are common in the Central Florida
summertime sky.
Like they say, "I know what a cloud tastes like"! (I've been in some
not-so-puffy ones too)
Maybe flying will be next after I've raised my kid.

Was in last Sunday's paper again(in color)! One of my favorites
too. Knew it was right away...
