50 years of women flying in the U. S. Navy

It's Super Bowl time, and this year, an all-female air crew will execute the pre-game flyover to honor 50 years of women flying in the navy. 

In addition, on the field, the NFL will honor Captain Joellen Drag Oslund, USNR (Ret), who was in the first group of six women to enter United States Navy flight training in Pensacola, FL. She was the fourth female to complete her flight training and the first to earn her wings as a navy helicopter pilot! Even better, she flew the H-46!

Thank you, Captain Oslund, for paving the way for pilots like me!

Book Club hosted by Carole Schlappi

One of my favorite things to do as an author is to connect with my readers on a personal, book-club level. Thank you, Carole, for the invite to spend the evening with your group. Incredible that some of your members have been a part of this club for 40 years!!! It was an honor to be a part of it. Thanks, again!

I'll be participating in a fun story telling event this Sunday, Nov 11th, 2pm, at Desert Foothills Library in Cave Creek. It's called, "For the Love of Story." Ten writers. Ten stories. About ten minutes each. The topics are wide-ranging--from the personal and the poignant to the adventurous and the funny. Trust me, all speakers will keep your attention and you are sure to be exposed to something new. Would love to see you there!
