  • Janis and I were able to log an official approach into Ruston, it's been a while since I was able to do that! We had a great time in Mena, AR at the Queen Wilhelmina Lodge, I still can't get over how good those Chicken Tenders were!!

    Wow those new cameras blow the GoPros away with color and clarity. If this was filmed with the new ones I could sure tell the difference. Flying over the mountains is always amazing. Glad you got to spend some time in Ruston. I hope you had a wonderful visit. As always thanks for bringing us along with you guys. Blessings to you and your family!

      We are loving these cameras!! I left the cameras in the front windshield without thinking and had to cool one down. But it started back up before takeoff and ran with no more problems.

    “What in the world is she doing?” 🤣 if I had to guess she is preparing the portable fan 😂. The clouds were so pretty in this one. I agree with Janis, you don’t want to get lost down there. We have been turned around in the middle of nowhere and it’s not fun 😂. Made me so nervous looking for the runway in the clouds. Once you spotted it and the clouds cleared I could breath easy. I have a whole new appreciation for your videos now. Loved this one! 💕

It was a WayPoint I set-up for you!!! That's ALL on ME and I apologize for not checking/clicking on the waypoint to ensure who it was.
