For our church's youth silent auction fundraiser, we bought a one-hour flight over Burlington in a 4-seater plane - as kind of a goodbye to our first true home as a young family! Isaac loved the airplanes - from the ground, at least. Once our pilot started the engines, he was a little scared by the noise!

Isaac was just short enough to walk under the wing! (This is our pilot, on the right.)
Getting Isaac's earplugs - he was none too happy about wearing them!
Getting ready to fly!
After Isaac's initial panic, he settled in on Dad's chest and actually fell asleep!
It's hard to see it, but this is a view of our house!(It's at the bottom right of the big open field in the middle of the picture, which used to be a little forest behind our house before they chopped down all the trees.)
Is that the plane we just went on, Dad?
Isaac loves planes!
Flying a plane is thirsty work!

How fun! What a great thing to do! Hopefully Isaac is old enough to remember it with pictures to capture the moment.
Very cool!
What a fun time, and I think I actually picked out your house! Isaac looked so happy (until he got inside the plane). What a cool experience for him and for y'all to say good bye to Burlington. Beautiful town!!
Thanks for sharing.
Love, Mom/Grammie
