Flying

The boys had extra incentive to finish their school work quickly on Wednesday. It was a beautiful fall day, clear blue sky, cool temperature, and best of all it was perfectly calm, which meant perfect flying weather. In addition, our newly acquired fleet of vehicles were beckoning to the boys.
Lukas and Noah loaded up the flying machines and we were off to the nearby park. Since it was only mid afternoon, we had the park to ourselves and the boys set up the command post.
They had neglected to mention that they had not yet attended the mandatory safety briefing, which would have prevented the minor mishap resulting in the boys scaling a tree. Fortunately, their team work and ingenuity solved the situation without any lasting damage but to their pilot egos.
It was a fun way to spend an afternoon, watching the boys hunched over the computer trouble shooting, observing the little plane glide through the air with the clear blue sky as a back drop and hearing their joyous laughter and bantering as they navigated the friendly skies over Sterling Heights.
