My favourite screen shot!

My last week at "work"

When you catch yourself walking around your work environment taking pictures of you, your co-workers and the work environment you live in, you realize one thing: WOW! I really enjoy what I do! And I really do!

You really feel the adrenalin when you are at the controls of a Jet airplane, either running down the runway going over 200 miles an hour for a take off, cruising at 500 miles an hour over the entire North America or coming for a fantastic landing at the nation's busiest airports.

YES!I LOVE MY JOB! I also take this time to thank SkyWest Airlines for this opportunity!

...THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO!

THANK YOU SOUTH END ROWING CLUB!

The month prior my trip to England was one the busiest months of my life. So many last minute trip details to go over on top of the training sessions I felt I little overwhelmed. Besides that the South End Rowing Club held a fantastic English Channel fundraising party on behalf of my trip. The party was fantastic especially with the HUGE help from Kim Howard, Robin Kincaid and Dave Maloney, Alisson Kallahamer, Tom Keller and many other helpers. Due to my work schedulle I was not able to go.

The love and support from the members from the SERC has been something that I take not only to France but throughout my entire life! Thank you so much for all the great support! Thank you so much for warm hugs and good luck wishes!I could not have accomplished this huge part of my journey without you!

Also,I could not have arrived at the English shores ready to go without you, Kim Howard; THE PRESIDENT OF THE SOUTH END ROWING CLUB!
