Rainy Day

Today the weather is bad and we are not able to do much flying.  It seems like the days that are the busiest coincide with bad weather.  We have lots of people  waiting around to go out.  So far everybody seems to be in good spirits about waiting.  The weather will get better though.  Fall doesn't seem to be to far away any more, the days are a little cooler and it is getting dark at night.  The leaves will be changing color soon too.  

Nelson wanted to go for a helicopter ride.
