I’ve been waiting for my upcoming weekend trip for months! This is to be the highlight of 2026 flying season, a long weekend break from work and an adventure.

As the departure day (planned for today) approached, the weather clearly did not cooperate. First major fall weather front came in with convective1 conditions, low ceilings, precipitation, mountain obscuration, high winds and thunderstorms.

Last week my Daughter and I flew to Charleston, SC for college move-in. Everything worked out, she is all settled-in and started school. With a few hours to spare on my last day, I made a trip to the USS CV-10 Yorktown aircraft carrier museum.

We recently made a week long trip to Charleston in South Carolina and Oklahoma City in Oklahoma. Both were full of surprises and great destinations we visited for the first time.

From Midwestern+West_Coast perspective, these locations were different and in all the best ways!!
