After the last few days, I needed a little aviation levity… so just now at work I was pursing through Mooneyspace and looking through 201er's Mooney Expedition St. Vincent, Wet Arrival images and telling my wife how neat it was, when my she walked by looked over my shoulder and said he looks really young…. Then she said as she walked away…. Looks like your Mooney thing is like your Corvette thing!!! I said NOW what is that supposed to mean I said…? Without missing a beat she calmly said: seems that the only people who have Corvettes and Mooney’s are young guys who like fast things and old guys going through a mid-life crises…. chuckle... chuckle..
I said gosh dear that is sweat of you to say that you still think of me as a young guy…..
For my own self esteem I won't repeat what her response was…….!!
By the way just to set the record straight I bought the Corvette for her ….
When asked about it she says “yea it looked good but there was no place to put the groceries and we had 3 kids at home at the time for a two seat car…”
Yea I said but the kid (whichever one was lucky enough to be the one she took that day) really liked the ride to school….!!!
