December 17, 20223 yr Our oldest daughter gave us a unique Christmas present this year. It's difficult for a couple in their 80s to keep a 2200sqft house clean. A lot of things get neglected like the windows and dusting hard to reach spots. Our daughter had a pair of professional house cleaners come in and thoroughly clean our house. It took them two days. Everything is now spotless...even the windows. I had them skip my computer office because it's like Fibber McGee's closet and I know where everything is. I didn't want it straightened out. It was much appreciated...a lot more than the ubiquitous package of goodies from Swiss Colony half of which never gets eaten (who likes smoked salmon? We're not Eskimos). Noel The tires are worn. The shocks are shot. The steering is wobbly. But the engine still runs fine.

December 17, 20223 yr Author I don't dislike salmon Charlie. I like steamed salmon, baked salmon, poached salmon and grilled salmon, I just don't like smoked salmon. Several people are ahead of you in line Charlie. The smoked salmon I get in those gift packages don't go to waste. Noel The tires are worn. The shocks are shot. The steering is wobbly.

Noel I am likely 10 years (and hopefully 2,500 to 3,000 flight sim hours) from reaching the same point, but I keenly appreciate your gift and appreciation of that gift. And my office (read flight deck) will be off limits when that time comes. You are a great mentor!
