Mr. Butler takes off in a little Cessna 172 at 11 a.m. MST so keep your eyes on the skies. He's very excited but ready with earphones, maps and radios -- all of which he probably doesn't need.
First day of non-meat was yesterday and it was easy, although just doing this made me think a second or two before eating. We'd walked to the country club for lunch and not one thing on the menu was meat/fish/poultry-less. We don't go there often but it was surprising there were no choices without saying "could you take the meat off? Last night, we were invited over to a little dinner party where we knew the host was serving turkey and ham but she knew of our experiment. The meat was served cold with buns for sandwiches and she had many salads so it was easy to skip the meat. Butler was called into the kitchen and asked if he wanted to take a little meat home with him and he said no, he wanted to do this, too. So far, so good! We both agreed that it helped the smells of meat roasting had already escaped the house and, after all, it IS only the beginning of day 2.
Keep your eyes on the skies.
