Devious Journal Entry
It's rare for such large scale, tragic events such as the recent fire in, and (partial) demise of, the Cathedral of Notre Dame to evoke anything in my heart or mind but disappointment and stark sadness.
For some reason, this event seems alarmingly apropos and somehow fortuitously symbolic.
Let's face it... A good deal of the western world's capacity to appreciate things cultural, spirited, historic or simply of intrinsic value to humankind has been burning and collapsing for some while now.

As usual, it's been a while since I've posted here on my dA cache.
This summer's been a mixed bag so far. Work at the hangar has been plodding along. Much less flying than last summer. If I'm to be honest, work on, and around those old warplanes is beginning to become mundane and uninteresting. Never imagined that would actually happen. Maybe it's the fickle Gemini inside or the fact that a good part of my youth was spent around such aircraft. At any rate, the novelty and excitement has waned decidedly. To go from rebuilding engines and fabricating parts with a fair amount of flying in the mix to being a glorified janitor has been disappoint
