Ladybug Fly Away Home









I picked up a nice little kitty from Athens, GA and brought her back to Memphis. We had to divert to the Tunica airport because of some horrendous mid-day thunderstorms.










Next morning it was off to Mesquite, Texas on the outskirts of Dallas to ferry Ladybug to her new home and pick up a little sight-impaired dachshund named Harvey.  He's bound for a new home in Virginia, but he will spend a few days with my daughter's boyfriend, Jonathan, who is kind enough to foster him until his next plane ride





.

Harvey seems to like people, and it appears that he forgot how to bark.  That's my kind of dog.
















It's time for summertime flying again.  In Memphis, that means playing cat-and-mouse with thunderstorms. Fortunately, the handy Garmin 696 makes avoiding these monsters much easier.
