So proud of my son Joseph (callsign "Vector") and all he accomplished this summer as part of Class VI of the Red Tail Cadet Program. Thanks to the many folks who make this program happen. It's pretty amazing.

Graduation ceremony is 6 p.m. tonight at Elite Aviation, 18600 Edison Ave., Chesterfield, MO 63305.

Looks like my son is just about finished with his final flight for the Red Tail Cadets program.

The team is almost back home, after a jaunt to Illinois.

Terrible video, but the image and the sound are definitely Joseph flying just north of us!

My mind is blown. Tonight my son is doing his first night flight. Flew from Spirit to Lambert then took off again. My wife and I were able to go outside and see him fly just north of us in Ferguson. Now he's headed toward Illinois. WILD!

This evening I had a chance to make some photos of the hummingbird in our garden. It's the first time in many months. (My OM-5 camera, which I bought for Fathers Day in 2024, had become unusable with a stuck shutter, even after repair. OM System sent me a complete replacement today)

Some good news today: OM System will replace the malfunctioning camera I got for Fathers Day last year.

I’ve seen a lot of stuff dumped along the Riverfront Trail, but this is the first time I’ve come across fish carcasses. Someone left behind a catch of large fish. Now they’re covered in maggots.

No advance warning. No detour information to help me get to my destination. Just a sudden closure on the Riverfront Trail at Branch Street. Thanks, St. Louis.

Hey @npr.org, when will you post the audio to the Sunday puzzle online? It’s been blank for more than a day now.

Cheering for Argentina at Tango Argentina Food in St. Charles tonight.

So frustrating and disappointing to see on my morning bike ride that UMSL has demolished the Alumni House at the intersection of Natural Bridge and Arlmont. UMSL has at last succeeded in removing all the houses on that stretch of NB, including the former Current and the International Student houses.

Watch out for the fallen tree on the Ferguson stretch of the Ted Jones Trail. I managed to move half of it to the other side so it’s passable. Also beware hanging vines farther south.

Yes, apparently so. She was appointed after her husband's death. stltoday.newspapers.com/article/st-l...

The Tucker tunnel in 2010 was another missed opportunity.

Also on the bike ride to work: racing the turkeys.

I bet you wish YOU had a journalist for a son!
