Forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward

I'll start this one off with two copy pastes:
"When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return." -- Leonardo da Vinci

When you choose the career of a flight instructor in the Midwest in the winter when the clouds come your flying opportunities are severely limited. Sure you can go up and buzz around below the clouds but good luck getting into the clouds(unless you likeice). So when this blizzard decided to roll into the state of North Dakota I knew I was going to be in for a few long, boring days.

So while I was trying to find something to do today I noticed myself continually glancing out the window looking up at the sky. WHEN WILL THIS END! Last night when I woke up in the middle of the night to get a glass of water before I turned on the light in the kitchen I glanced outside to see if I could see the stars, "traffic not in sight".

This quote has forever been a favorite of mine because it is so true. Show me one pilot, or person who's been in a small plane, that when they hear a small plane fly over doesn't look up to the sky. EVEN though we know that that plane puttering above is a Cessna.

So as I sit here waiting for the blizzard to clear I will continue to look out the window hoping to see either stars(tonight) or blue sky(tomorrow).
