The gliding adventure deserves its own page.  Mary Jo and Tony are both pilots as well as Nick so this was extra fun for them.  We went to the Soaring Capital in Elmira, NY. Nick's pilot let him take the stick and fly it himself, which was an extra thrill. I was the official photographer and kept my feet firmly planted on the ground.

Beautiful gliders
