    I was a Flight Attendant with United from 1988-2004. I was based in DC and would have loved flying with you and joining on the adventures. I did some fun things like Scuba diving the Keys and off Kona to overnight fishing out of San Diego. On a crazier note, I went to Law school in Denver while flying out of DC. I would fly 1-2 trips then commute to Denver where I grew up and attend class at the Univ. of Denver Law School which was just down the street from Stapelton Airport. In between trips I actually got to see my wife. I graduated after 3 1/2 years. After flying I had a great career as a trial attorney. I will pray for you and your friend Neil. Take care and God Bless.

    Makes you realize how you should cherish every time you get to see a loved one. Never knowing if it may be the last time you get to be blessed with their presence. Never go to sleep with anger in your heart towards somone you love. Sorry for your loss, it’s so amazing the people you look at in your past who were instrumental to where you are today. So glad you can pass that gift on to another.

    Paul hi from Alberta, Canada. As a 40 + year business traveler I've racked up my fair share of air miles. I always take advantage of long layovers or extended my travel stays to explore the special places of this world too. Fortunate my employer allows us to retain our travel points for personal use.
    However you take layovers to a whole other world and I love it. Your personality is infectiously positive and fun look forward to each posting.
    A moment of silent recognition to your mentor and friend.
    Thanks for sharing your special places,

    • @mylayoverlife

I have had several of those people in my 40 year IT career. My first one....without revealing his name...GCP....this one is for you! Thanks for being my first boss and best boss as well as a friend/mentor! Will he ever see this post? Doubt it....but I'll be sure to let him know next time we talk.

Last week I had a flight home for a family emergency and it was your longest domestic flight video that took just enough off my mind to unwind. But there’s many more so thank you and me and my daughter look forward to the next one!
