My son, the pilot, got laid off last month. Things are really bad out there in the job market. But they are lucky.. Misty is a teacher and is still working. But she’s pregnant with their 2nd child. Hopefully no one will need to have to visit a Plano cosmetic dentist’s office any time soon.
Theo says they’ll be ok for awhile. I think they’ve been smart and have been putting money away for just this type of problem. I only wish we would have been able to do that too.

My son flies a corporate jet all over the country. He’s also flown people to the Bahamas & Bermuda too. A lot of times he has to stay overnight and has stayed in anaheim california hotels, hotels in the heartland, on the east coast and in those lovely vacation spots and many other places.
I’m so jealous. I have traveled a lot but as I’ve mentioned here so many times I want to go someplace where the weather is warm and the water is crystal clear. I just hope I’m able to do that before I’m too old to enjoy it.

My oldest son is a pilot. He was flying commercial regional jets for a number of years and we, as his parents, got to use his flight benefits. I have gone to Germany twice for only $25 each way and I’ve flown a lot of places in the US for nothing. He has since changed to flying corporate jets and no longer has those wonderful benefits. I really miss them.
As a pilot he was put up in different hotels when he had an overnight layover. He’s stayed in hotels in many different states including vegas hotels. Now he gets to fly celebrities around to many other places and he’s really excited about his new job.
