Going Coastal
Wed July 20 wasn t like every other trip i take to Myrtle Beach. This time i had a couple days to cut loose and see all my cats on the ocean! This would be my spiritual healing for the month. Chaz in town is the reason for the celebration this week, he was an old roomate in Las Vegas. Being it his first time seeing the Atlantic Ocean we hooped it up IFR in the Sundowner to HYW courtesy of Johnny . Thanks by the way! Chaz just got hired by Mesa Airlines and he spent a non rev ticket on the trip to NC. I once again crashed Brian and Stacey's couch (thanks also) in Socastee for a couple days, i got to snake the river with the old roomey Matt, Adam and i took these cute chickadees for a nightime flight over the coastline, and i got to visit with everyone at NAIA Aviation Institute. After the flight it seemed fit to go shoot some pool and get rehydrated at the Jackass Saloon right outside of Coastal Carolina Univ. Highly Recomended ! The rest of the story happens to be censored . Friday i sadly had to climb in 968 for a cloudy solo trek home. I was in the soup single pilot for over an hour at 6k , i need the solo inst. practice anyway. It is this moment i think to myself it can t get much better than this, zipping thru these huge towering cumulus at 140 knots in a small airplane is a welcome change of pace for me right now. All the cares seem to melt away when you concentrate on the job at hand. This is my life .......My life in the fast lane.

Sounds like tons of fun!! Being in those marshmellows so low to the ground solo is kinda eerie. I hope you had a decent GPS. Johnnie & I bearly missed some TCBs & lightning on the way home from TPH this morning. there seems to be more weather here in the summer than in the winter...weird. talk to you later.
Chazz lookes like he's scared shitless!
