well it's hard to beleive it's November already

Deer hunting has precedence for the first half of the month, gotta put meat in the freezer ya know.

I'll be ordering my ground school books in a couple of weeks and should see them before Thanksgiving. December and January get rather boring so I'll have plenty of time to study, gawd it's been 20+ years since I did school work I figure 2 hours each evening and 4 hours each Saturday and sunday for studying should get me the knowledge I need to pass the ground school portion, just need an instructor to sign me off when I'm ready.

gonna pick up a multi band radio so i can pick up the airport chatter, have 4 airport within about 15 miles from the house should be able to get the hang of what to say, gotta get the frequencies.

I guess weather and navigation will be the hardest parts so I'll have to come up with a method that I can teach myself to understand without going wacko, anybody got any thots on what worked for them?

well enuf for know, more to add after Thanksgiving.
