Fun in the Sky for FHE

 A buddy of Nathan's from school, named KJ, has his private license and they had worked it out to go flying together.  When he came to pick up Nathan last night to fly we learned that there was an extra seat and Harlow & I jumped at the chance to fly with them.  Look now its a FHE cause we were able to all go together :) We flew in this small 4-seater Piper, the smallest airplane I have ever been on.  Harlow did great...He slept almost the entire time.


KJ's a good pilot; we were safe and got to do some fun zero G's, hard banks, climbs, windy landings, and see the beautiful mountains.  With the zero G's he told us it was coming and I still let out a yelp and put my one free hand up on the ceiling of the plane (like that was going to do anything for me) ...I did much better the second time.  It was dark and at first we were disappointed that we weren't going to be able to really see anything but we were gladly wrong.  The sky was clear and we had a nice full moon.  I was surprised how well we could see, it being a night flight and all.

When we got home I told Nathan "You know, I'm just not feeling 100%" but he agreed so I didn't feel like a complete dork.  A little motionsickness from the plane ride followed me over into today :( Good thing for peppermint...

 Hahaha - I love Harlow's squashed face in this picture
...he would not keep that headset on for long
