Frolfing

I spotted the Conocido disc golf course that Sara and I frequent from the sky today.  It actually has grass! We put Isaac in his stroller and walk the entire course.  Lately, we've let him get out near the last couple holes and kick the soccer ball around or throw the disc into the basket.  Last week we ran into some avid drone pilots.  They build their own drones and use a camera headset to fly them.  They can go up to 80-90 mph.  Yikes!  One pilot said his drone accidentally wound up in the disc golf basket one day.  Maybe a hobby I'll consider when I pay off the rest of my debt from learning to fly airplanes...

Risky Cross Country Flight

Took a bit of a risk today and went on a cross country flight for my commercial training.  Why risky, you ask?  Well because my wife is 40 weeks pregnant and was due yesterday.  Thankfully she did NOT have the baby while I was gone.  But we sure hope he comes soon!

Let the cross country flights begin!

I started my commercial training on Wednesday last week.  Today I logged 3.2 hours of cross country time.  Minnesota and Wisconsin might be one of the most beautiful places to fly in the summer!
