Memorial Day weekend flying

Monday, May 27, 2013

Isn't Memorial Day weekend the best?  One of the best things about our country is our freedom, and we have selfless servicemen and women who protects that freedom.  I can't even imagine the sacrifice it is to serve in the armed forces.  I am so thankful that people would do that for all of us!  

I spent this Memorial Day weekend at the beach with B.  He headed to the coast before I got off work on Friday to take some ties to a store in time for the holiday weekend.  B mentioned getting my dad to fly me to meet him, and before I even asked, my dad told me he was already going by Ocracoke and could take me to AB.  

When we got to the airport, I wandered around for a few minutes waiting on another passenger and checking out my uncle's airplane, and I saw this cat by my uncle's plane.  If you follow me on twitter, you know I want a cat.  This is even more reason for me to spend time at the airport this summer!  I came for the airplanes and stayed for the cat.


I asked my dad if he wanted a picture in front of his airplane.  He said no but took mine.  

What a way to start the holiday weekend!  
No, I didn't fly that thing by myself.  I forgot my booster seat.


NC is pretty.


If you look reeeeally closely in this one, you may spot Dowdy-Ficklen stadium.  Go pirates!


I see some water!  Despite some winds earlier in the day, the weather was absolutely perfect for flying. Not much beats landing right next to the beach in Ocracoke.  


B picked me up at MRH, and we headed to AB.   



What did you do over the long weekend?  Did you go out of town?  Travel by car, plane, boat, train? 
I hope you had a great weekend and took time to thank God for our military.
