Flying across the entire United States of America with my beautiful wife and a gym bag full of clothes is exactly how I want to spend my life.
It sounds corny, but I’ve actually really longed for this moment, and all the other moments to come; moving to Los Angeles, getting a job I love and doing the work I want to do, inevitably moving back to Raleigh at some point, and one day, hopefully, going to space. Right now, cruising at 35,000 feet, with a sea of clouds below, and incredible empty blue– deep, dark, rich blue– waiting above, I can almost get there.
The plane will land in 4 hours at LAX, we’ll hop on another one to Las Vegas, and spend the next four days having fun on the ground. But hopefully, in the years to come, the ground won’t be the only place we’ll go.
Up, up, and away.
