[Ken Thompson III]

Mike
I've probably had a drink or two in that bar, no matter which one it is!

Nice meeting you,

Ken

  Ken,
  I came up here in 91, my first duty station in the Air Force.  Fell in love with it, married my wife up here and returned back after getting out of the military in 98

  One summer I worked and lived at the University of Michigan biological camp located about halfway between Pelston and Cheyboygan.  After work we used to go to Cheyboygan to see a little bit of civilization.  During WWII my grandfather owned a bar in downtown Cheyboygan.  Lots of family roots in that area.

        Ken,

        Hows the flying at the end of the Cheboygan airport. I have seen the field, nice grass.  I live in the south but have only visited in the summer. Bet there is a lot of snow on the runway.

            All you Southern boys,

            Hearing all you guys talk about the weather, I think I might have made a mistake.  Just a couple of years ago, my wife and I bought our retirement home, in Cheboygan, MI.


            I wonder what my chances are of talking her into a warmer climate, year around.........hmmmmm.........probably not very good.

                  Let's see, it was about 30 the last time I took my Harley out in the Winter (Connecticut). The hardest part was kick starting it. 60W is REAL thick when it's cold (yeah I've got one of THOSE OLD ONES). The ride wasn't too bad - once you're frozen you can't feel anything. If you're lucky you get stuck at a light long enough to warm up your throttle hand on the oil tank. I'm getting too old for this stuff. You guys in the warm states make me jealous! Stop It!!!


                  OK. I won't bug you. Instead, I'll head out to the flying field. It's about 64 degrees, but it's only partly cloudy. Yesterday it was "severe" clear.
