GREGORY




LAX-DFW

SEPTEMBER 24, 2011



WHY ON THIS FLIGHT: Wildfire relief crew staffing. Two weeks in Mineral Wells, TX

FACT: I hiked to the top of upper Yosemite falls, Yosemite, CA. Asked my girl to marry me and we now have a 10 month old baby girl named Taylor Grace

BUCKET LIST: Italy, Ireland, South of France and Greece.

GUILTY PLEASURE: Oreo cookies or fudge brownies with milk! Romantic comedy...my wife makes me....

*MY TWO CENTS*: On this flight the person in 11D didn't speak any English at all. There were three D seats in a row that were all harassing each other, I knew that they were traveling together, so I thought I would do some harassing of my own and picked out one of them to fill out the questionnaire. Gregory was happy to do it. I love the fact that he is this big burly firefighter guy, that mentions his girl, his baby girl, cookies, milk and romantic comedies! I was happy to see both sides of him, he is a really great person!

WHY ON THIS FLIGHT: Return from business trip (Raytheon)

FUN FACT: I was camping in Death Valley when it received 6 inches of rain in one day. (Heaviest rain fall in recorded history for Death Valley)

BUCKET LIST: Travel to Europe (Spain, Germany, Italy) (to see old world history)

GUILTY PLEASURE: Hop on my motorcycle and take an all day ride across North Texas, visiting as many small towns as possible.

*MY TWO CENTS*: I love his guilty pleasure. I love driving (a car) through small towns and stopping in for a bite to eat, walk down “main street” and get a feel for the local flavor. My Dad grew up in a small Texas town called Nocona. He worked in the Nocona boot factory when he was a teen. His town is small and when ever our family is there for a visit everyone knows who we are. I like that small town feel, very much. My neighborhood has a bit of a small town feel to it. I know most of my neighbors, we all stop and chat with each other when we walk by or drive up. I can walk to the post office, library, local coffee shop and a bunch of restaurants and bars.

BUCKET LIST: ADAM: I want to travel the world and meet people whom I disagree with, see things that startle me, I want to see things that take my breath away.

*MY TWO CENTS*:OK, so there were not both sitting in 11D, actually neither of them were sitting in 11D. 11D was asleep the entire flight. They were super cute and super cool & super fun. It was great that they both filled out the questions and answers. I have run across a lot of people that are writing blogs also. It really is such a great creative outlet and a wonderful way to meet my passengers and document my amazing job.
