About

My name is Mike Hillwig and I live in Salem, MA with my pug, Reggie. I'm a DBA (database administrator) with a high tech company. Originally from the Pittsburgh area, I moved to Providence in December 2004 and then to Boston in November 2005. March of 2008 brought me to Salem on the Massachusetts north shore.

What else do you want to know? I'm an aviation geek, a foodie, have some tattoos and live with Multiple Sclerosis. This year, I'm in my first season singing Baritone with the Boston Gay Men's Chorus. If there is anything else you'd like to know, just ask. I'm hardly shy.

International Departures

I live near Boston’s Logan International Airport. If you can’t stand the sound of airplanes landing and taking off, you should not live in my neighborhood. Fortunately for me, I love planes.

Today, the flights are taking off from runway 15R, which makes them go right over my house on departure. Between 5:00 and 8:00 is great when they do this, because you hear the rumble of the widebody airfcraft taking off for their international destinations. We have at least four flights to London, one to Shannon,  Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Munich, Milan, and Zurich.

Yeah, I like this time of day.
