I just returned from an extremely fun day of flying in gliders, watching gliders take off, wing running (not to be confused with “wing walking“) and and hanging out with very nice and interesting people, all courtesy of The Civil Air Patrol.

The activity was conducted by members of the Grand Forks Composite Squadron and the Jamestown Civil Air Patrol.

Here’s my squadron’s website, if anyone is interested.

I’d write more, but the day has left me feeling quite tired.
