WHEN I WAS A KID

When I was a kid and on into my teens, I dreamed of flying in an airplane.  I was never in one until I was about twenty years old.  My mother was never in one until she was at least in her forties.  Our family only went on two vacations when I was growing up and both were by car.

On the flip side, for a few years in the 1990's, I'd fly for business about forty (40) times a year.
