Where am I? Part II
In addition to the work on the Indy Transponder, I am now doing a five minute radio spot on Flight Line Internet Radio. I’m having a blast doing it too! Did I mention I’m learning a thing or two as well?

Where have I been?
All of my blogging is currently at The Indy Transponder and I’m doing a daily short-read of Aerotainment News on Flight Line Internet Radio.
Where am I?
I still haven’t determined what to do with this blog yet. I want the history – so I need to figure something out. In the meantime, most of my blog-work has been focused on the Indy Transponder.
Race for the cure – Indianapolis
Today we participated in the Koman Race for the Cure (local news). We walked the 5k route. Afterwards, Debie, Tom and Ty did a balloon release in memory of their fathers, who both passed away on 19 April of different years.
This one is my favorite – I got tired of carrying Shane. When I put him down, I asked him to carry me for a while. Well – he tried!
Birds of a different kind
We left Sunday. We got back last night. We spent three nights away unplugged from the world. We stayed at a lodge at Lake Wisconsin. The lake is still frozen, but it made for some awesome views of the eagles and osprey as they sat on the lake.

If you are looking for a place to get away and unplug for while, Lake Wisconsin Resort is a recommended destination. You check out their photo gallery here.
Oh – hint to Dave, the resort owner – we’re looking forward to the live web cam on your site so we can watch the flying squirrels at night!
Thunder Over Reno Update
I received a new update yesterday about the movie Thunder Over Reno. Summer 08 is the new projected release. You can read the new as the Thunder Over Reno website.
The Indy Transponder launches
During the air show off season I’ve been working on a project. Someone noticed my little blog here and found out I’m a bit crazy for air shows, air racing and aviation in general. So, I was asked to become part of something bigger. It went live on the internet today. There are plans for bigger and better things in the future, but what we have now is very exciting.
The Indy Transponder is a compilation of numerous articles from across the globe about air racing, air shows, the performers, the organizers, and a whole lot more. It’s been distributed via email for a couple years now, but now it is on the web. I’m thrilled about being a part of this and I believe many of you will enjoy what it has to offer.
Worth sharing
There are a number of good posts in the link blog today that are worth sharing. You should go check them out.

Thirdwavedave had a great post with this one. It’s a fantastic clip. A great find. I enjoyed watching this one.
Air Racing: John Sharp vs. Kevin Eldredge
Without boring everyone with details – this has been a tough week. And…due to time restrictions, I’ve not been to my favorite source of air racing info – AAFO. So, to get me out of my bad mood – I went out there today for a fix.
This video features the two NXT aircraft racing it out. It also give you a nice back story on the relationship between John and Kevin. And the sounds are great! Unlimiteds, obviously, give you the best sounds on the racing course. But the Sports Class offers up some awesome sounds around the pylons as well. It’s a good cure for a bad mood. Let the adrenaline flow!
