Richard got his first social security check this month and decided to get a new computer with it. He was really intrigued with the flight simulators when we visited the airplane museum in Utah. So now he has a shiny new computer with a flight simulator game on it. A golf game mysteriously appeared on it, too.
He has been learning all about flying — after all, it is just like flying real airplanes! Real pilots use this to practice with. It has lots of different planes and helicopters, even a glider. Everything from Cesnas and ultra lights to jumbo jets!! The screen shows all the aircraft instruments and the real scenery that you are flying over. And there is Air Traffic Control to talk to you, too. He is taking the flying lessons built into the program and doing fairly well. And he has also had some spectacular crashes!! Thank goodness it’s not real!
Of course, if something moves into the motorhome, something has to move out. So we took the dinet table out and put it on the lawn with a sign that read Free to Good Home. It was gone within an hour. Now we have a computer desk in the table’s place.
