There comes a point for us all when the routine simply becomes too routine.
Perhaps it’s the tedium of the daily traffic snarl that’s grinding your gears. Or, the consistent long-range forecasts that feature nothing beyond showers, drizzle, rain or precipitation.
You need a palette cleanser – something to recharge the spiritual, emotional and physical batteries.
It’s high time to take to the skies.
