No matter how many times I see this I stop and watch if I can.
Scottsbluff, NE 9\16\2015 Flight for Life.

Got Nothing, Want to Blog
Nothing
much to say but that has never stopped me.
Last
night a Flight for Life landed on the
hospital roof as I was about to leave. Saw it at a different viewpoint than
usual, from underneath and five stories up. It was about 0320 and the heliport
lights were illuminating the rotor. Awesome sight. I've always been
impressed with those Flight for Life pilots.
Some
poor soul was shot earlier, around 0200, on a portion of I-25 I often drive as
a courier, and at the time I am on that route. No motive given at this time.
My
sister, the Insurance Adjuster, has been working her derriere off on the two
multi truck wrecks in two days on I-80 in Wyoming . She said the second scene looked
like 9/11 Ground Zero. Among the many terrible tragedies was a two woman team.
One was killed. The other, asleep in the sleeper portion, was ejected, injured,
and everything she had burned up (clothes, drivers license, credit cards). Imagine
being on the side of a mountain in freezing fog, with only the (torn) clothes
you are wearing while your friend is dead and all your possessions and livelihood
is burning. There is more to the story but my sister has conflict of interests
issues due to different clients. My sister, by the by, is the most ethical adjuster
you will ever meet. That pisses off a lot of people. Shoot, she won't even discuss many things with her “Big Brudder”.
Have
the next four days off. May take a day and visit the Pawnee Buttes and Grasslands,
a favorite place.
