Has it really been that long???

Posted on Monday 13 August 2007

WOW! Sorry for not having updated this in soooo long. Anyways, I’ve been busy for a little bit. I am now sitting in Anguilla, BWI (British West Indies), and having a “rough life”. My travels have taken me up to the northeast a couple of times now, through the midwest, and to Panama (no, not Panama City, FL, but the real Panama). It’s definitely been an adventure.

As I sit here, reflecting on the “jet-setting” lifestyle, I am very proud of where I am in life, and in my career. Overall, it has been a good transition, with great Captains to learn a ton from. I am feeling more and more comfortable in the airplane with every flight. The schedule has been very manageable, for the most part. I wish we had a better time off policy, but we’re working on this.

Anyways, as previously mentioned, we are in Anguilla, in the British Virgin Islands; just a stone’s throw away from St. Maartens. I have been snorkelling most of today, and plan on more tomorrow. We will be heading to Miami on Wednesday, and enjoying some great Cuban food. I will also get to spend an evening with my brother-in-law, so it should be interesting there.

It’s always humbling to see life in other parts of the world. As beautiful as this island is, with pristine beaches, we definitely have a greater appreciation for America and all that it offers. If you haven’t been out of the country, make sure and visit some place. It always makes me appreciate life a little more than I already do.

One of these days, I’ll figure out how to put pictures on here, and give you a journal of Washington, DC, Panama, and Anguilla. Until then, I hope everything is going as well for everybody out there as it is for me and my family!

    Too bad your wife couldn’t join you down in the islands! She had to stay home and actually work!

    Wow, what a coincidence, my wife’s name is Amy also!!

    Yes, but my wife is very supportive of my career, and loves me very much!! :-) One of these days, my wife will go part time in her work career so she can travel with me, too!!
