We hit the road again tomorrow. Arizona, then Utah. I haven't traveled since November. I can hardly stand myself I'm so excited.
The project is scheduled to be a 2 week on-2 week off deal. Only the second pilot is hung up in INS out of Canada. So, could Lithus fly for at least two weeks, but possibly six, depending on how long immigration takes? Of course, he says!
Yesterday, he called to check in. Looks like the customer may want both pilots, two helicopters, full bore 'til it's done. But they may not be. Is Lithus willing to stay out indefinitely? So long as Pobble is with me, sure, he says.
What does it mean? It means we are on the road again ~ and we have no idea when we're coming back. Maybe two weeks. Maybe the first snowfall in Utah. We'll just see.
When I was six, my grandparents gave me a suitcase (blue with big, hot pink flowers). I kept it packed and stored in the closet, just in case there was an adventure and I needed to be ready. It took another 34 years, but I'm finally on the adventure. A published author, married to a helicopter pilot, life is fun, crazy, adventurous, challenging ~ but never dull.
