Sometimes you get the chance to go and use the airplane just to do something fun. Earlier this month I had the chance to go and pick up Dr. Jen from Thlanyaku on a Saturday. Instead of going straight to the mountains and back I thought it would be fun to take Evi and one of our new pilots Justin with me and enjoy a nice morning in the mountains of Lesotho. Justin and I both have Radio Controlled model gliders that we took with us. Actually I just built mine and it (or myself) has ever flown before. Here are some pics of our day in the mountains. It was a lot of fun and kind of funny that we took a real airplane to fly somewhere where we could fly our toy planes. Because I was on call for emergencies we used a satellite phone to make sure there were no emergencies while we were out playing.

My how time has flown the last month. It is hard to believe that we have been back here in Lesotho over a month. Things are going great and we are keeping busier than ever.
Please continue to keep praying for us and we will keep you updated on life here in Africa.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY:
Leslie turned 30 on January 16th. We had a nice dinner and cake at home. We enjoyed spending the evening underneath the grapevine in our backyard
Evi is also doing great and still is walking better than ever. She is loving her jungle gym and doing great on this climbing wall that I made for her. 
Even in the midst of the business of Lesotho we still ahve time for a little fun and games. Before we came back to Dallas in October I found a pair of "fun-noodles" in the hanger and had fun directing the airplanes on the ground with the noodles. The Lesotho military in the hanger next door though we were completely insane, but I did have fun. While back in Dallas someone broke into my locker and put the following sticker on my flight helmet. I had to get a pick with the helmet and my "fun-noodles" before removing the sticker. Although I did forget and it wasn't untill a passenger mentioned it that I remembered to take it off.
