Sky Ski

Anyone who knows me and my family knows that we live for the lake. I have tried to get bak up on ski a couple of times and it just does not look like it is going to work out right now. Some of you know that I was curious about trying an Air Chair or Sky Ski. These are hydrofoils that you sit on. There is basically a board similar to a wakeboard with a raised seat. A hydrofoil extends below the board about 3 feet. Last Saturday, I asked the Pollards at the marina if they knew anyone who had one and they did. We met Mike and Connie and Mike offered to pull me up Sunday morning. It was unusual at first and I certainly need more practice, but it was awesome! Mike let us borrow the Sky Ski for the rest of the day and I got up on it a couple more times. It takes the legs out of the equation and allows me to ski again. You could say that this was just about the last piece of the puzzle for me to say things are completely normal again. We are certainly putting the Sky Ski on the shopping list and want to say a special than you to Mike and Connie.
The last piece of the puzzle would be the Air Force Reserves. I would really like to at least finish my last 5 years...
