My little mother had yet another flight with me recently. I needed to pick up a case of aviation oil, so on Tuesday, we flew out to Brantford. The weather was perfect with nice smooth air (so Jan didn’t glare at me). There was some ground fog to the south:
We parked Vyctor then headed in to have breakfast at the restaurant at the airport, the Skyway Cafe.
Their food is always so good. Once our bellies were full, one of the folks from the Flying Club drove us over to the Aircraft Spruce store:
We picked up our orders (one for myself and those of three of my peeps back in Niagara) and headed back to the plane. It took a bit of maneuvering to get everything loaded nicely in the back, but we managed.
The flight home was nice, but a little bumpier than on the way there. I don’t think Jan glared at me though. She was too busy admiring the leaves in their Autumn glory:
Since we left fairly early that morning and were back at CYSN (Niagara District Airport) around noon, I still had a bit of energy left. We decided to hit Zehrs on the way back to get our flu shots. We didn’t realize this, but there is a higher dose of the flu shot for seniors, which you can only get from your doctor. Good to know.
I have a feeling Mya was missing me that day. When I got home, she was snuggling with my Dusty pillow (Mya knew I flew in Vyc that day):
She followed me around everywhere and even stood guard as I dried my hair:
Eventually, my little guard jumped up on the counter and her three minions soon followed:
Yesterday was a very special day for one of them. This is from a Petsmart email:
That’s right. My youngest, little Abby, turned 10 on Halloween. Here she is when I brought her home as a kitten:
And something a little more recent:
She wasn’t supposed to make it to three, so it’s awesome she’s made it to ten!
Today’s symptoms: Felt decent, which was nice because it was my day off. I got my final emissions test done on my car first thing in the morning. For those of you who don’t know, there will be no more emissions tests starting in 2019. Yea! I’m having a lot of nerve pain in my hands, which was a tad annoying. I managed to get a few things done at home and then just chilled for the rest of the day.
