Got caught in a wikipedia vortex that lasted for four hours. Lots of history of the west coast of North America (best place on Earth, I reckon), cities in California, the various wars and treaties involved in carving out the current boundaries. Depresses me a bit because I’ve traveled some and it’s not enough. I haven’t experienced nearly enough of what’s out here. Figure the only way it’ll happen is to give it all away and live poor or get myself rich. Both difficult.
At one point I got turned onto zeppelins. They’re a marvel, you know that? Big gas-filled balloons several times larger than the larget jumbo jets. Hardly see them now, but they’re something else. Takes a bit of work to get on one nowadays, let alone get to fly a zeppelin. Seems a waste to me to just be the passenger.
The master list is updated. More specific. I want to get a pilot’s license, starting with the small prop plane VFR and IFR. Then helicopters. Then, goddamn it, then the zeppelins. Few as there are it’ll be a challenge, especially if approached as a hobby. There’s no hobbying into the gondola of a zeppelin. It’s going to be a choice. Difficult as always, until it’s simple as breathing.
