WOW! All four of you have gotten 75,000+ EQMs since January 1st?!?! That's insane! Don't the kids have school or something? Homeschooling on the plane?

Congrats on the family Plat status!

peace,
~Ben~

Want to adopt a 33 year old? I might drink your beer but would be willing to mow the yard on saturdays for PE.

Yes, they do have school. They are doing very well in school. The principal works with us. But it is difficult to get all the work done.

Can I get back to you on that one? Actually, I am homeless right now. Although my wife and kids live in our home.

That's just amazing. My folks used to take us abroad over summer break since they'd work in Europe or Asia for a month or two every summer, but we never got to travel anywhere near that much. The best education you can give your kids is travelling with them, broadening their world view, and exposing them to so much of what's out there. ^

oh dear yaatri

I hope this just refers to relentless traveling and doesn't mean your home was destroyed by Katrina. A friend of mine lost a beautiful home on the water in Waveland. Nothing left but a slab.

And congratulations to all of you for your platinum achievements!

His kids are better flyers than many adults I've met. We've run into each other at least three times on MRs.
Congratulations.

Ok but I got another family thinking it over as well. I know they'll sign the papers as soon as the restraining order gets lifted.

we came thru OK, we're in a wind damage area

My home repairs are finished except for the landscaping, indeed, most of the houses on my street have their new roofs. I had an evacuee for a couple, three months, but he's back in his house now, so there is a lot of progress here. We were very, very lucky compared to so many!

I agree. I recall one time that the two of them were the only ones in the NRT WorldClub not frequenting the beer machine. I can imagine the looks that you folks must get when upgraded on occasion.

What is doubly impressive to me is the Plat status being good for the next 22/23 months for all of you.

Congrats to your family.

Remember to buy your tickets in pairs from now on. No more buying all 4 together.
