A Diary from a Trike Pilot – That has moved to paradise!

Dear Diary:

August 12^th

            Moved to our new home in Ohio. It is so beautiful here. The hills are so majestic. Can hardly wait to see them from the air in our trike, and they also get covered in snow. I love it here.

October 14^th

            Ohio is the most beautiful place on earth. The leaves are turning all the colours and shade of red and orange. Went for a fly through the beautiful hills and saw some deer. They are so graceful, certainly the most wonderful animal on earth.

This is pilots paradise. I love it here.

November 11^th

            Deer season will start soon. I can’t imagine anyone wanting to kill such a gorgeous creature. Flying is fantastic here and I hope it will snow soon. I love it here.

December 2^nd

            It snowed last night. Woke up to find everything blanketed with white. It looks like a postcard. We went outside and cleaned the snow off the taxiway. We had a snowball fight (I won), and when the snow plough came by, we had to shovel the clear of snow again before going for a flight. What a beautiful place. I love it here.

December 12^th

            More snow last night. I love it here. The snow plough did its trick to the taxiway again. I love Ohio.

December 19^th

            More snow last night. Couldn’t get out of the taxiway or hangar. I am exhausted from shovelling. BLOODY snow plough.

December 25^th

            Merry BLOODY Christmas! More friggin snow. If I ever get my hands on that son of a bitch who drives the snow plough, I swear I’ll kill the bastard. Don’t know why they don’t use more salt on the runway to melt the BLOODY ice.

December 27^th

            More white shit last night. Been inside for three days except for shovelling out the taxiway after that snow plough goes through every time. Can’t go anywhere, even the car’s stuck in a mountain of white shit. The weatherman says to expect 10 inches of the shit again tonight. Do you know how many shovels full of snow 10 inches is?

December 28^th

            The BLOODY weatherman was wrong. We got 34 inches of that white shit this time. At this rate it won’t melt before next summer. The snow plough got stuck up the road and that bastard came to the door and asked to borrow my shovel. After I told him I had broken six shovels already shovelling all the shit he pushed into my taxiway, I broke my last one over his BLOODY head.

January 4^th

            Finally got out of the house today. Went to the store to some food and almost got to do some flying. On the way down the runway a damned deer ran in front of the trike and I hit it. Did about six thousand dollars damage to the trike. Those BLOODY beasts should be killed. Wish the hunters had killed them all last November.

May 3^rd

            Took the trike to the aircraft engineer at the airport here. Would you believe the thing is corroded out from all the BLOODY salt they put over the taxiway and runways.

May 10^th

            Moved to Florida but I should have stayed at Horsham. I can’t imagine why anyone in their right mind would ever live in that God-forsaken State of Ohio.
