Up For Air!

Whew! sorry it’s been a while. Things have just been insanely busy recently. and I don’t see anything letting up for a while.
Here’s some major things I want to note that have been taking up my excess time:
got a new macbookpro It of course Rocks! :) The conversion to it went pretty smoothly. I didn’t let the wizard transfer everything over because I hadn’t had a “clean” install since the pre-release of OSX I think.
went to RailsConf2006 It of course Rocked! :)

I’m not sure that I can share anything enlightening about RailsConf that others haven’t posted yet, but I loved getting to meet people that I had only talked to online. and meet new folks that I will now continue to talk with.
Especially enjoyed getting to meet in person Jason Perkins who I’ve know online for several years. “You Da Man!” for helping me out with a room when my original plans fell through!
The last news is late breaking. I finalized a deal this morning to purchase a 1977 Cessna 172 180hp conversion. I’ll get some pictures of the actual bird next week and post them. I’m pretty pumped. I’ve been looking at several airplanes and this one just completely Felt Right to me. There were pros and cons to all of them, but my gut feeling was very different with this plane. Which is weird since I’ve really been a pro-piper guy. Anyway, I can’t wait to start flying it.
