Spouse Day

Today was spouse day at Nate's squadron. I was supposed to get a ride in a glider, but it ended up being too windy :( I was really looking forward to it, maybe next year.



Falcon. Pretty cool to see close up



The cockpit. I actually got in the glider thinking we were going to be able to go up. The glider in front of me was cleared to take off and then a big gust spun it around. So that was the end of that. They tried again later but it was still too windy....




Tow plane pulling the glider on take off. They release the rope between the glider and the plane in flight and then it just glides down to the ground. Pretty cool.
