We are always happy to see new faces in this little mountain town, especially young ones. Don't get me wrong, all new people are welcomed with open arms around here.
I met this new, young couple, last week at the movie theater open house. When folks see a new face around here. They will say something like "why don't I know you?" Which is exactly what I said. Seems a couple of years ago, they rode motorcycles through this town, fell in love with it.... and bought a cabin. Trust me folks, that is not uncommon. It is a long commute for them, since they are still working, and live in Michigan.
I visited with them for awhile, and found out that they both work for a major airline. I of course discussed the fact that I was a stew back in the sixties. I need to work on not talking so much about myself, and ask more questions. I left without even asking WHAT they did for that major airline.
Imagine my surprise when I later found out they are both captains ...and that pretty little blond pilots an Airbus!!!!
Yes we "oldies" have to learn to think different don't we? Professions have changed a lot :). They both look very cute.
ReplyDeleteWhen we were flying, Janie, a female pilot or co-pilot was uncommon, probably zero. These two are happy wanderers!
ReplyDeletehow awesome. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is quite a commute!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great story! Thanks for sharing and have a nice flying :)
ReplyDeleteDearest Janey,
ReplyDeleteSmall world in fact as you all have been up in the air so to speak. But both being a captain is special!
Hugs,
