Where have I been?

Well, where do I start? The summer came upon me rather quickly this year, and has hit me in the reality face hard. After getting hurt this season and missing a few months of the skiable winter, I feel like the season passed me by before I was able to find a groove and really accomplish anything I set out to do. When I was healthy at the beginning of the season I was plagued by issues ranging from weather, conditions, family obligations, work issues, and just plain life challenges. However, I am not different the any other person, so I had to take the battles as they came and keep my nose to the wind.

So, to make a long story short, the summer came and I had to make some decisions. Now that it is towards the end of the summer I am realizing how badly I have neglected the sweetness of tysonbolduc.com. Rather inane I know, but in the midst of the hectic winter and having to take life as it came at me, I decided to start something new this summer. Therefore, instead of using gravity as a counterpart to my activities, as I have my whole life, I am now studying to tame it and harness it. Back in May I started flight school and have been learning how to fly helicopters for the last few months. It has been a feat far more difficult then I anticipated, in every stretch of the imagination, but I am loving every time consuming minute. The process has been interesting as finding a school, learning the process to get in the FAA’s program, taking class, learning the whole new language of flight and radio jabber, and most of all learning how to play with gravity and not die have all been a full time job. It has been an exciting few months, but given the difficulties I have been faced with I apologize for my lack of posting and knowledge tossing here on the page.

However, keep in touch as the fall will be filled with product reviews and preparations for the winter and I hope to do my part. Deals from backcountry.com will be posted directly on this page so stay tuned. Otherwise, enjoy the last few weeks of summer and keep your eyes to the sky, because I could be flying over you.

    Tyson,

    I stumbled onto your blog, good stuff. I was curious, what flight school have you been studying with?
