What a Day!!!

I reported to Portland this morning at 7:00 AM. Flew to San Francisco with a hour delay. We left from San Francisco almost an hour late, by this time I had figured out that this flight was my Check Ride (I.e. my testing flight to make sure I'm doing my job properly). We end up with a maintenance delay in Phoenix, which turned into a sand storm delay! On top of all this I'm supposed to leave on a trip tomorow morning for my testing on a new aircraft!

So basically I end up sitting in Phoenix for well over six hours. They will be putting me in a hotel in San Francisco tonight because I ran out of hours to work today. I fly back to Portland tomorrow and I'll catch up to my other trip on Saturday morning! What a crazy crazy adventure!!!!!

I just want to make it through this to get down to San Diego to see Rick this weekend!

Life of a FA!

More New Adventures!

Well....I'm moving again....but just across town haha! I'm moving onto PSU campus September 1st into college housing with 3 international master's students. I'm kind of excited about this move, it's much closer to downtown Portland and it's very close to the train. I like this already because it will actually be my place, not a crashpad. So I'll be sharing the living room and have a mattress on the floor, but it's MY space I don't have to move everything out everyday.
Wish me luck! I'm stoked!

Honor our Heroes

I just want to pay tribute to the incredible men that serve our country. I had the privilege of knowing some of those killed in the helicopter in Afghanistan. Incredible men that do incredible things everyday so that we can live in freedom. They deserve our honor and respect, thank those men when you see them.
I'm so grateful they are there so I can be here doing the things that I love to do and be with those people that I love. They sacrifice their families, their comfort and even their lives. What a blessing for us! I'm praying for those that are feeling the loss and the hurt that comes with it. Those men are heroes!
RIP
