Took my first lesson on my 14th birthday and turned 74 today and spent the morning on the lake fishing. It just don't get any better than that. Gave 8 people their first ride in a float plane 2 days ago and the plane is still usable for another day.

How different would your life have been if you decided to go fishing instead of flying on your 14th birthday........
I'm glad you went flying! Happy Birthday Roger!!!!!!

Happy Birthday neighbor. Enjoy the cooler temperatures up there, it was 101* in Brazoria today, with a heat index of 108* at 3:00 PM. The thermometer in front of Brazos Mall in Lake Jackson read 102* when I went by it while ago. I think Bay City is a couple of degrees higher. My contract in Jasper is done, so I am back at home now. Will catch up with ya when you get back to Texas. TTYL.
Congratulations. Well done! `And keep celebrating!!
I passed 56 years of flying in January. Through no fault of my own. Chose my ancestors correctly. I hope I never catch up to you because that will mean you have stopped!

Happy Birthday Roger!
Small fact, Roger was the first person that I had contact with on this site WAY before I even dreamed of having a super cub......
WAY, WAY back when I was modifying our Tcraft with special camsand exhaust mods.
Happy Birthday Roger! Thanks for sharing your deep-seated and immense love of all things flying with us "kids".
