Wednesday Medley

NATIONAL RIDE THE WIND DAY 

1.  Tell us about the first airplane ride you took and do you like to fly?

The first airplane ride was to Boston...not for pleasure but for my daughter's open heart surgery.  

I have flown a few times after Boston and I did enjoy flying.  As a matter of fact, I just got back from a trip Monday...Plane ride over 11 hours.

2.  Have you ever gone hang gliding and was it on the beach with boat power, or from a mountain with only the wind and your body?

Have never been hang gliding and I don't want too!!

3.  Have you ever gone kite flying and with whom?

When younger I sure I have gone kite flying.  I have flown many kites with my daughters.

4.  Experimental aircraft is quite popular as a hobby where Terri lives.  Have you or anyone you know ever constructed a flying machine and did you ride in it?

I knew a man from my church that constructed his airplane...well helped with the construction. He offered to take my late husband  and I for a ride in his aircraft.  We took him up on the offer.  I thoroughly enjoyed it.  My late husband didn't care for the ride at all...couldn't wait to get back on the ground.

5.  Another big hobby around Lakeland is Radio Controlled Airplanes.  Have you ever seen them flying or tried your hand at it?

I have seen the Radio Controlled Airplanes flying around some but I have never tried it.

6.  Please tell us something about your week.

Just returned from a fabulous trip with college friends.

We all enjoyed the week.

Bye for now....

Take Care and Enjoy Life
