We flew around Davenport, IA and looked at where she lived, etc. 45-50 minutes. Sounds a bit like an inexperienced passenger on a motorcycle. Every time you go around a corner they try to move to keep their upper body at right angles to the ground. It can be quite disconcerting to the rider. -- David CL Francis |

"Jay Honeck" wrote in message news:197rb.146656$e01.504987@attbi_s02... Enjoy them while they're with us, George... For Father's day, I took my Dad out for lunch to a restaurant named Fran's Front Porch, which is right on the field at Causey Airport in Liberty, NC. Good food, by the way. I made up a little ticket, a boarding pass, if you will, that I was going to punch when we took the flight. It was meant to be cute. Because of weather (summer) and schedules, it was a couple of months before we could take the trip and I had totally forgotten about the ticket. But he didn't. He proudly pulled it out of his pocket and said, "Captain, here's my ticket". Something about that gesture touched me. Then I remembered that I had seen that ticket sitting on his dresser in plain view during the months after Father's Day. My father would usually tuck something like this away, but he put it where he would see it every day. Having that ticket to look at kept him reminded of our plans and perhaps kept him looking forward to the day when we could take the flight. I have to say that we really enjoyed that little trip, it made for a fond memory. For those who want to take a loved one flying, think about using a ticket and giving them some time to warm up to the idea. -Trent PP-ASEL |
