The airstrip

A week ago Gary and I (mostly Gary) made it possible for our friend Doug to take some flying lessons. Doug had always expressed a desire to learn but hadn't done anything . Now Doug has cancer and the outlook could be a little better, so Gary decided it was time for Doug to learn. The whole problem was getting Doug out to the dirt airstrip at Scofield without knowing that this huge surprise was waiting for him. It took a lot of doing but with several people helping the plan happened. It was so touching to see so many people sacrifice for one persons dreams!!!!

This is a view of the big bucket that fills with water and then dumps on the kiddy slide.
