The boys had an amazing opportunity the other evening - a spontaneous plane ride! M. mentioned to a co-worker that we were planning on visiting the local airport's open house this weekend for discounted plane rides. This co-worker told M. that he has his own plane and that he would be more than happy to take the boys on a ride that very evening! M., of course, jumped at the generous offer.
The pilot went through his flight check with us - showing the boys the various aspects and parts of the plane, what he was doing and why he was doing it. Due to weight restrictions, he then took the boys on two separate 20-minute plane rides. They were especially thrilled to fly over our house and see the goats! Caleb said that it's like looking at a gigantic map and Eli, of course, got some great photos. What an incredible opportunity they enjoyed . . .
