Liz's Letters

Sunday, March 14 Fred and I were able to get away for an entire afternoon and play with "our new toy". With the worship service over and no children at home we felt free as birds. So we headed to Krum, Texas. This is where we hanger our Piper Cub airplane. Many people (even in Texas) have not heard of Krum, so I included a photo. We stopped for a bite of lunch at the local Mexican restaurant and watched the folks at the church across the street leave their services and walk right across the street for lunch. After our delicious meal, we drove another few miles up the road to the hanger. Yep, this is it. And the runway? There it is... Yes, it is grass! It is not necessary to have pavement to take of and land in a small airplane! Here is my hubby, opening the doors to the hanger, revealing one beautiful yellow wing. This is the traditional color of this particular aircraft. If you want to read more about this wonderful little plane, here is the Wikipedia link. Piper J-3 Cub...

This is my middle son, Aaron. He is a great guy but he has been a little busy for a while. ...seems like years. Busy being a teenager, then a young man, finding his own way. Sometimes it seemed like his way was far away. But God is so cool; He answers prayer. Something that I have prayed for is that he and his dad would find a connection. My husband dreams that one of his children will want to fly- like he does. Answered prayer and dreams come true. Aaron spent the day at the airport today- And he thinks he wants to learn to fly. What a great day! Happy Mother's Day!
