I got an update after my surgery yesterday that Kerry is showing some improvement.

In so doing, I renewed acquaintance with tons of stuff I'd forgotten, and almost began to feel like I was back into it myself. What great fun, seeing the goings on at Van Nuys and the other local airports, and getting cockpit-view videos of landings on top of Catalina Island which I can tell you from experience is quite the hair-raising thrill. YouTube is such an incredible resource for so many things. Being able to make contact with part of one's past life in this way is: priceless.I guess having a cold can be a good thing I thought only sea planes landed at Catalina, but then I was very young the last time I was there.

DR CHAS SMITH I would have to take some Dramamine before I watched those airplane videos.....
DR Laura should be bringing back some good material for "What I saw today..."
How are those recovering from eye surgery?
