Angel in the Sky!!

Say hello to Captain Art Godjikian of Airlift Northwest (Critical Care in the Air). 
This afternoon he safely delivered a little girl into the hands of doctors at Seattle's Children's Hospital. 
His emergency flight took forty seven minutes, carried two nurses, the patient and the little girls mom. (These choppers fly 24 hours a day in all our challenging weather). 
Art brought his passengers from high desert, over the Cascades, to this landing spot east of the University of Washington campus.
We had a nice visit as we waited for the nurses to return from the hospital. As the ambulance returning the nurses to the chopper drew close, one of the nurses put his hand out of the passenger side window and gave a thumbs up. 
A good day for all. 
Thanks Art.

Dear Americans

Dear Americans,
13 more shot dead!
Wasn't the slaughter of children in Sandy Hook suppose to be the moment when we said ENOUGH!!??
How is it possible that the bully, the NRA, crushes rational policies to keep all our "kids" safe. 
All those that died yesterday were someones kids...
We all deserve better!!

Dear Republicans

Dear Republicans, 
Why do you continue to denigrate the president, and us? Is it because we want peace as a first option, the money we contributed to Social Security, health care for all, quality education, rebuilding our infrastructure, rational gun controls, women's rights, gay rights, voters rights and a secular government???
Please, focus on what you can bring to the country versus what you can take from it...
We all deserve much better!!
