Rushed the field as an honorary Sun Devil after ASU upset a fifth ranked Washington. It was a happy birthday. #forksup (at Sun Devil Stadium)

Flying into OU International on Saturday, see you then 🐾 (at Athens, Ohio)

Kluber got 9 Ks but the real MVPs were Maddie and Matt because they understood how important seeing the Indians in Florida was to a lone Clevelander and came with. Perfect day flying up to see them win. 6 stadiums down, 24 to go. (at Tropicana Field)

We never lived together in college so for 6 weeks we lived together down here. Because getting ripped off by Culver's is easier with friends. (Picture taken minutes before a wild manatee swam into me because Florida.) (at Sanibel, Florida)

Made Miami last night's destination for our lesson and left the plane for a few hours to see one of baseball's best traditions. 5 parks down, 25 to go. Also, go AL. (at Marlins Park)

On Saturday morning the world lost a truly wonderful person and a great pilot. Hearing of a fatal plane crash first thing in the morning at Page Field was unnerving enough. Finding out that one of my absolute best students was involved was downright sickening. This picture was taken on a 4 hour flight we did together in pursuit of Marc's instrument rating a couple weeks ago. An expert in all things Florida flying (he had his private license for years), Marc insisted we get permission to transit the restricted area in the skies over Disney World so I could see the parks from above while he flew. It was an amazing experience. And it was something that was to be expected with him. Marc was beyond selfless, ALWAYS happy, super hardworking, and will be extremely missed. I can't imagine what his family, friends, and coworkers are going through. Appreciate life. You can end up in the wrong place at the wrong time any second. (at Epcot - Walt Disney World)

Last weekend 7 of my best friends flew into Fort Myers on real planes. Then we took two of these bad boys fully loaded over the ocean and landed in Key West for the weekend where we killed it. I have the best best friends.

Last week, LeBron broke the NBA Finals triple-double record and the Cavs set the NBA Finals three-pointer record, but I hit 500 hours in the logbook.

Looking (unsuccessfully) for the SpaceX launch out of Cape Canaveral about as high as this thing could go. Still worth the trip up 🚀

Sunset flights over the ocean to Key West and stargazing flights on the way back. Feels less like instructing and more like a date.
