Isn’t flying the most amazing thing? I confess a constant struggle with a fear of flying. The night before a flight, during takeoff, landing and whenever the flight is turbulent I can’t help but picture my fiery death. However, once the plane is at cruising altitude and the ride is smooth, I can’t get my forehead off the window. The scale and wonder of the earth below is intoxicating.

And I get to do all this with my favorite crazy lady,
