So I went to twitter for the first time today and I joined. It's a great place to get updates about sports, as well as say useless things about yourself and not feel guilty! I'm pretty sure I'm already addicted although I'm very lonely right now...follow me!!!
It's funny just a few months ago I created this site because I thought I might lose my job. My plan was to walk from Key West to Argentina with my dog. Do I think it was a stupid idea now...not at all! I would still love to attempt that. However, I kept my job, Victoria Park came in and is serious about transforming our airline. A rumor has been going around in the crew rooms about our company wanting to "take back the Bahamas", and I guess it became official today!!! Check out the article! When I post the link it is messing up this page so just search for aviation week gulfstream and
I'm pushing for our new paint jobs to include pirate flags on the tail, new call sign...Red Beard...but I may just have to dream about that one! I had to get rid of an amazing dog, leave Key West, a place I absolutely fell in with, and start over in Ft. Lauderdale. I wasn't happy about all this but it did allow me to take a month off and travel to Cambodia. I wasn't sure how life would be in South Florida without a car, and more importantly what kind of schedules I would get. It's been nothing but great schedules, 4 day trips with overnights in amazing places in the Bahamas, and I've already done one trip since being based here and with 9 days off at the end of this month already another trip is in store...Honduras?! I missed all the island flying when I was in Key West and didn't even realize it until I came back here. Also all the captains are awesome here and I'm getting to fly with all the senior guys I never got the chance to when I was first based in Lauderdale/Miami. I live in an amazing place right on the beach for 400USD a month all included! The beach is amazing, I already knew that and it was one of the only things I didn't like about Key West. Every day the water is different, although always clear. Today was very calm, bath water temperatures, perfect. The best part is our new contract, which I just found out goes into effect in two parts on June 15 and July 1st. The new contract will allow me to manipulate my schedules to get maximum days off for traveling, including personal leaves at almost anytime!!! I'm debating taking one for July, but most likely I'll take it in Sept/Oct and hitting up Bolivia. If I can save enough I'll take both months off and add Peru and possibly some other countries. Until next time E First off, huge thanks to Chris and Nanchyy for being the best hosts one could hope for in Guadalajara!
I don't have much time so this will be a boring blog, but expect more later. I felt it was time to start the blog back up though and after mentioning it on my Spanish page I had to do it. It's almost time for the Heat/Mavs game and I'd like to edit a couple videos before the game. Expect new videos from Guadalajara and Cambodia soon. Be sure to check out my Wonderful World Beautiful People, it's a lot of fun making it, and wish I would have done it earlier. I hate regrets though, so I can't wait to meet more amazing people! Cuidate amigos! Viva El Heat!!! |
