My Gallery
my best christmas present this year...

... on december 26, 2008, a man and woman walked in my little gallery and i asked them where they were from (just as i ask many of the tourists who come in.) the man answered, "montana!" i paused for a moment, looking at him and then realised who he was!

he was my pipeline pilot, larry larson from molt, montana with his wonderful wife, lalonnie. what a thrill it was for me to see them again and spend the next few hours with them!

before they left i took this photo of them in my front parlor:

larry is still flying the pipeline in the same aeroplane, his piper super cruiser.

after flying with him twenty years ago, i changed my ambitions from wanting to be an airline pilot to wanting to be a pipeline pilot! it's still my ambition. perhaps someday in the future...
