Today was quite exciting! Jesse Hercules flew in from Mississippi through Gatlinburg last night. We hung out and chatted, then got our sleep. This morning, after Troy and Jesse went to get doughnuts, we went to the Lynchburg airport, hopped in Jesse's plane, and flew to Raleigh. Jesse has a Cherokee that seats four people. Its like a medium sized car with wings. It has a propellor on the front. I was terrified.
However, I sucked it up and went ahead. The flight was really smooth, since Jesse's a good pilot and I had my motion-sickness patch on. It took less than an hour, and we arrived to see Troy's parents. I went shopping for fabric with Becky while the guys tooled around. We had dinner at the grill at Briar Creek country club, then got dropped off at the airport. It was an uneventful flight home, and now we're back at the house.
It was a really small plane. I was really nervous, but now I'm excited that I did that! We had a great time and got to wear noise-cancelling headsets and see our area from the air. Woo hoo!

So fun. :) Little airplanes are great! Glad you managed to have a good time in spite of being afraid.
