Back from Wyoming
Well my wife and I took a two week vacation to Wyoming, S.Dakota, Idaho and Minnesota. Had a great time, went white water rafting on a class 4 river, Ballon riding over the teton mountains. The only bad part was coming back. We left Cody, Wyoming on a prop plane to Salt Lake city, Utah and the pilot informed us that theres a real bad head wind and a plane ride that usually takes 55 minutes turned into a 2 hr. nightmare. The ride was so rough that sometimes the plane was on it's side, sometimes it droped 500 ft. in seconds then come right back up again. Baggage was flying around and people were crying. My wife grabbed my hand in a death grip and all I could say to here was"Honey, just keep your eyes close and if the worst happens, it happens". Must admitt I was sure that we were going to crash. The pilot came on and sAID HE WAS TRYING TO GET ABOVE 15,000', BUT THE WIND SHEARS WERE TO STRONG. iT LASTED FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES AND THEM BEGAN TO CALM DOWN. I thing I've taken my last plane ride!Keep smiling, it only hurts when you think it does!
Hated to see that news, he was a good online friend.
