A beautiful day for a ops test flight after doing some maintenance on a customers Cessna 210. Just leaving all the worlds drama behind and cruising at altitude!!!! #earthboundmisfit

He was giving me tips on this whole flying business, although he admitted he was only just beginning. Go spread your wings and give it a try!! Maybe you’ll fall, but maybe you’ll fly!!! #earthboundmisfit

So many promises in life and so few treats! Pilot, mini golden, is not going to miss a treat if any one of these confusing implications turns out to be true!!

Found this little guy stuck on the stairs. I carried him out and released hims in a the field after the video.
