Yesterday was one if those days when you really feel like you are living right. Monday the ground winds were too high to fly safely. Today we woke up to rain and a 4:30 AM text from Lisa saying they weren’t flying due possible rain and a wet field. Yesterday, the day we were on scheduled to fly in Pix, there was perfect flying conditions. Light lower level winds and upper level North winds taking us over less developed land for landing purposes. Jim and Lisa, owners of Pix, have been good friends since we met them at our wine tasting group in Texas. Ed had crewed for them a number of times when they flew locally. He had also gotten to fly a number of times but I was too worried about my fear of heights to join them. This time, when the amazing opportunity presented itself, I forced myself to overcome this fear. If not now, when, right? It was incredible, like floating over humanity in a world filled with wonder and beauty; so very peaceful! I didn’t even get the hiney-num-nums! The other thing that was so remarkable was the volunteers who come from around the country to help. They were all as happy as we were. It is a day I will never forget❤️!
