Up, up and away...



Ryan went up in his first helicopter aerial survey on Friday for his new job. Here are some great pictures of his flight! :) Looks like he will be going up every week during manatee season (Nov-Mar).

Here's a good perspective of the size of the helicopter





Ryan's view, skid and all



Some great views of the Ft. Lauderdale Area

Happy Thanksgiving!!! :)

As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly...

Enjoy! :)



Happy Thanksgiving!!



A THANKSGIVING POEM FOR YOU

'Twas the night of Thanksgiving, But I just couldn't sleep
I tried counting backwards, I tried counting sheep.

The leftovers beckoned - The dark meat and white
But I fought the temptation With all of my might.

Tossing and turning With anticipation
The thought of a snack Became infatuation.

So, I raced to the kitchen, Flung open the door
And gazed at the fridge, Full of goodies galore.

I gobbled up turkey And buttered potatoes,
Pickles and carrots, Beans and tomatoes.

I felt myself swelling So plump and so round,
'Til all of a sudden, I rose off the ground.

I crashed through the ceiling, Floating into the sky
With a mouthful of pudding And a handful of pie.

But, I managed to yell As I soared past the trees....
Happy eating to all - Pass the cranberries, please.

May your stuffing be tasty, May your turkey be plump.
May your potatoes 'n gravy Have nary a lump.

May your yams be delicious May your pies take the prize,
May your Thanksgiving dinner Stay off of your thighs.


HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL.
