by Sean Fulton
 CHILDREN'S LOG AND ACTIVITY BOOK
Necessity is the mother of invention, so when Joyce Logan and her husband needed a way to occupy their children on long, cross-country trips, Joyce came up with the idea of an activity book the children could fill out along the way. Filled with puzzles, games and other activities, the book also includes a trip log so that youngsters can take notes about each trip to go back and relive later. Available for $9 from myfirstlogbook.com.
BLUE ANGELS PUZZLE

Featuring the U.S. Navy's Flight Demonstration team in their trademark F/A-18 Hornets, the completed puzzle makes a nice framed wall piece when it's complete. Measures 18 inches by 24 inches, and priced at $11.99 from amazon.com

 LIGHTED KEYRING
You'll never have to look for your keys again with this clever, sound-activated lighted key chain.

 THE ALASKAN MILE
Doug Geeting is an Alaskan bush pilot who began his musical career in 1979 and has spent the last 25 years playing a combination of ballads, blues folk and country music. Both of his cds, Between Flights and The Alaskan Mile, have flown in space aboard the space shuttle as part of the Shuttle Juke Box. A great gift for the music-loving aviator, just $15 from womenfly.com.
 BRAUN POCKETGO SHAVER
Smooth skin is just seconds away with this neat new Braun electric shaver, which comes with a flip-top cover to protect the delicate shaving screen as it bounces around inside your overnight bag. The Pocket Twist Plus 370 is described as the perfect shaver for the man on the go, but we see no reason why the ladies wouldn't want to enjoy a close shave on the road as well. Just $15 from theessentials.com.
