* Cooler than yesterday…!
Rain & lightning made us forego some of yesterday’s classes, but it’ll be nicer today! It’ll still be a bit humid yet cooler. Yesterday, Amy held onto her pull over shoot catch! Amy’s friend, Amy (also), took to flying like a natural! Nergis, Melissa & their classmates got in most of their class before getting poured on! We wish an early happy birthday to Melissa! Mother Nature always plays with us; all we can do is play along. This season is really ramping up as classes fill up earlier & earlier. So, try to get into a class early if you want to fly! To loosely paraphrase Charles A. Lindbergh: “Science, freedom beauty, adventure: what more could you ask of life? [Flying] combined all the elements I loved… Adventure lay in each puff of wind… I began to feel that I lived on a higher plane than the skeptics on the ground, one that was richer because of its very association with the elements of danger they dreaded, because it was freer of the earth to which they were bound. In flying, I tasted a wine of the gods of which they could know nothing… I decided that if I could fly for [only] ten years… it would be a worthwhile trade for an ordinary lifetime.” Well said. Let’s fly high! – Dino *
Funny looking back on that day. The first Amy mentioned was Amy Gre., who is now married & w/her 1st child. The 2nd Amy was Amy Gro., who has grown to become one of our staple instructors. Wow. A lot has happened in those years between then & now.
