Springtime & Roger's Pacer

Roger Huntington was gracious (crazy) enough to let me fly his Piper Pacer.  I've never flown skiis before and there are several minor differences...like no brakes or steering. We pre-heat the engine before starting it.  Once in the air it flies quite normal.  Roger drove a "snow machine" out to Koyuk (near Nome) and I flew out and picked him up on the ice.  The snow machine is for Wassilie & Jane Mute...a 200 mile trip for Roger a one hour flight for me.

The passage “Wings like Eagles” comes from the Old Testament book of Isaiah.  Eagles are referenced many times in the Bible. We can learn from many of God’s creations important things about how we should live our lives, and the path that will lead to an eternity with God.
