So, thinking of my Grandfather James Carlile, sparked an idea. I don't remember much of him, but one of the most prominent memories is that he used to have a little 4 seater plane and flew it recklessly cross country. I don't remember him ever being loaded with money, yet he still owned a plane. So why can't I, right? See where this is going? And my Aunt, (his daughter) knows a lady who is a flight instructor who could help me get my pilot's license, ackkkk! Why I could visit home more often than I thought! Silly, I know. It's fun to dream.

We can certainly create our alternate universe in our art, can't we? Mike laughed at me when I first brought this up, and he told me that I always have these big ideas and I never follow through. That night over a bottle of wine we both daydreamed about it and even gave our first plane a name. I should put that on my "bucket list", to take a flying lesson!
I'm looking forward to another fun year of blogging with you Diana!
Hey there-
I've actually had that same thought a few times... about learning to fly a plane. I imagine its the most liberating feeling one could have! Ha! I thought I was the only one. lol.
Happy New Year Cynthia- good luck on your move. I've reinvented myself many many times: MA, NY, NJ, NC, CA, New Zealand... its all good and every place somehow contributes to the person you become along the way.
Thanks Lisa! And thank you for your encouraging words. The thought of flying never came across my mind, until I really thought about how attainable it could be. Double that with being told that I am a silly dreamer, and you've got a challenge! I can't imagine how liberating it must feel.
