Last weekend, Dan and Cyndi invited us to fly in their plane with them to Lake Chelan, Washington.  

 Dan is the pilot and Cyndi is the co-pilot/stewardess.

She made sure and attended to our in-flight needs...

The flight is only 1 1/2 hours.  The weather was a little rainy when we left and so the flight was a bit bumpy going up.  Luckily for me and everyone else, I didn't have to resort to using that handy little white bag, but I  made sure it was close at hand more than once, just in case it got worse.  I tried so hard not to let on to them that I was not feeling so great, they wanted so much for it to be a great time for everyone.

Lake Chelan is gorgeous!  I could not believe how tropically colored the water is!  There are vineyards planted all around it, so the second day there, we rented bikes and rode to a vineyard for lunch. 

 The flight home was amazing.  I had tried not to think about it much.  The weather was sunny and warm and the sky was smooth.  We took a different path home and flew over Mt. St. Helens.  We were able to fly right past the crater and could see a tiny vent with steam coming out.  The sky was so clear we could see all the way past it to Mt. Hood and Mt. Jefferson.  We also had a great view of Mt. Rainier.
