Flight numero 3

Well there you have it. Flight numero 3 down...11 to go. First of all, I wanted you all to know that I really appreciate your love and support, and constant prayer. I do not know how this whole thing will end, but I do know that it is your prayer and support that is helping me be willing to get out of bed each of these mornings, and run head-first at the challenges I face. I flew again this afternoon, and to say that it was a rough flight would be an understatement. With challenging winds gusting up to 22knots (that's quite a bit), I felt as though I was fighting the wind god for over an hour. That, my friends, is tiring indeed. After many failed attempts at landings (which sounds kind of funny if you really think about it), and a bit of air sickness, I did manage to make it back to Pueblo, get my plane where it needed to be, and even get some dinner. Now as I head to go chair fly (that is sitting in a chair and pretending you are flying) I can only say that this is an unparalleled experience. When I went through field training (boot camp) a few years ago, I expressed how I felt as though it was the hardest thing I had done (and it probably was). I am still grateful for that experience, and the once in a life time lessons I was able to learn. I expect that this will be a similar experience. As I head into day two of week three, I say lets go. Whatever happens happens. God is in control. All I can do is give it my best tomorrow...and see what happens.
