Be vewwwwy quiet. My pager has been, anyway.Just a shout out to let ya'll know I'm still here, in case you were wondering perhaps. It's just that my SAR pager hasn't made a peep in ... hmm ... what's it been? At least a couple of weeks.
And that's a good thing. I mean, as much as I love being on the team and participating with missions, I don't WISH for people to get hurt, stranded or lost, especially in the very wintry weather we've had lately. (Not to mention that it certainly is nice to be warm and cozy inside when it's snowing like crazy and c-c-cold outside.)
Anyhow, in the meantime, I've been reading away. More SAR stuff, of course, including Heart of the Storm: My Adventures as a Helicopter Rescue Pilot and Commander
by Colonel Edward Fleming. I wrote a little review on my other SAR blog, SARstoriesNews, if you're interested.Now, though, as I take a break from books about helicopters (which I seem to have developed a bit of a fascination with over the past year or so), I'm reading a piece of fiction for a change, called The Wall
by Jeff Long, a thriller that takes place on Yosemite's El Capitan. (I'm giving you the Amazon links, but I've found these books at our local library, so you probably can, too.)Anyhow, I'll be back to babbling when something babble-worthy happens.
Oh, and just a note to blog subscribers: Feedburner was recently acquired by Google, and, in the changeover, it appears some bloggers have unwittingly left a handful of subscribers behind. So if you once received the feed but are checking back here on the website because you haven't gotten anything in a while, you may want to re-subscribe. Just a thought. :)
