A New Pilot on the Loose!

A couple weeks ago, we drove up to Vance Air Force Base in Enid, OK (most boring drive ever). This is where my brother was stationed after he graduated from the Air Force Academy. He was studying there to become a fighter pilot and he did it! I'm so proud of him because there is NOTHING in that city and I can't believe he lived there over a year without going crazy. And I'm proud because he's finally going to do what he wants to do....fly planes! Now he will transfer to Charleston Air Force Base in Charleston, SC--whoo hoo! MUCH better place to live!
Congratulations to my brother Nate for being awesome and becoming a fighter pilot!!

You can't even see the end of the covered storage for all the planes that they have up there!
