The Columbus Dispatch

Here is a link to a wonderful article.
And since I'm writing on the eve of Memorial day. Let's all remember what this holiday means, and that's to remember the ones who have made the ultimate sacrifice to this country.  Unfortunately I have a list of guys that I'll never forget, and that I think of often.

Flying

I'm here at Purdue with the ableflight guys. Been flying twice a day with the ground school Class in between. Having lots of fun! I keep forgetting to ask and bring my gopro. So hopefully I'll have to me camera footage soon on youtube.

Groundbreaking ceremony!

Well the house process is moving along fast. June 7th will be our groundbreaking ceremony at our property.  For more info, RSVP, or if you can help; go to https://hfotusa.org/gibson . It's so exciting to see our property and hard to imagine that soon we will be home.
Also during this time, I will be off earning my sport pilot licence. I was one of the few who was awarded a flight scholarship with ableflight.  I can't wait to get in the air! Here is the link http://ableflight.org/featured-posts/2014-scholarships-awarded . Overall this is going to be a busy year!

Another busy week!

Well after a nice slow week, I fly out for Sun Valley, Idaho tomorrow to do some skiing. I've been really looking forward to this trip! Going to break out the GoPro and get some runs recorded for youtube. Only thing that sucks is I get to catch 3 flights tomorrow. ... yay.

So around last week I learned about a great opportunity through a group called ableflight. Basically it's a scholarship for people who are disabled and want to learn to fly. Check out their website here: www.ableflight.org . I did submit an application, so hopefully I'll be chosen for this summer's flight training
