On Tuesday, February 26th... Shane FINALLY got to go on his first flight!! For four hours, he went back and forth from the Mexico border to the La Jolla, California area-- doing practice drills. He came home from work completely overjoyed from this fulfilling experience... as he knows, there are many more to come!! Aviation is truly perfect for him. He is absolutely beside himself with happiness. This is what he was meant to do-- the path God has choose for him.
I'm happy for you, baby! We love you so much and enjoy seeing you so content!
