That's Doug above me at night. Soul sisters waiting to meet. I'd take another 30 or so years.
And if I'm understanding it right - that involved two parents - one at the end of the flight - chatting - chattering - demandingly - demanding - loudly - a little fearfully!
In this way, Beat wings harder. Tack your head in. Feet out for landing. Watch out for windills. See that cat down there! Monster killer! Our mortal enemy.
The parents took their responsibility very seriously, diligently. - Rights
