Bach in the USSR (boretum)

MRC was busy as a beeeehive as AngryCandy's overhaul under
SevenOfNine's stewardship, Stogie and Nosepicker's tandem tall takes
shape, and many other projects continue.

Wombat hatched a plan to go to the JPeeeee arboreeeetum and the
weather was perfect, so the word was passed that we'd be covering
some lightyears this Earth week, and we went.

16(?) doughty pilots launched.  Megaseth's main stage misfired
and he flamed out immediately, and a few minutes later we were
joined by Deathtrap. We proceeded by a convoluted and wormhole-laden
route to our goal, interrupted by heavy traffic in mid-Boston system
and one refueling stop.

Treeeez were achieved, and we chilled at Planet Arboretum under
powerful Earth moon rays.

Hackworth, YT, Keebler and Seven broke loose from the fleet and
sortied homeward at speed, and the remaining pilots journeyed home,
again by a wayward and scenic route. Despite the onset of some
serious bananarama, GooseTransport and Spark continued their
maggoting with full honors.

When all was said and done, we managed to pass through 12 different
neighborhoods of Boston, and in record time too, making it back to
base well before sunrise. And, in over 400 pilot-ly there were no
mechanicals. Mad props to our tight mechangineeeering crew!
