Winds and Mohawk haircuts

I now feel guilty about our weather down here in Florida after speaking with Greg. This week, though, has been frustrating at best. The wind started blowing last weekend and hasn't quit, so we have been grounded.

I'm used to seeing the unexpected in airship operations, but when I walked into the morning safety meeting, I noticed something looked a little different about Jose Herrera, our senior radio and TV technician. Of course, I knew there was a story, and it seems he was involved with an event sponsored by St. Baldrick's Foundation. Volunteers shave their heads to benefit research for childhood cancer. It's a great cause, and Jose can pull off a Mohawk haircut.

We just enjoyed a few days off for the holiday, but hopefully we'll get some flying in before our two-week hangar period begins this weekend.
