Beautiful Wedding
Labor Day weekend we found ourselves in Madison, IN for Kesly (Dwight's niece) and Alburn's wedding. It was a beatiful outdoor setting overlooking Madison and the Ohio River.

Celebrations
Monday, August 24th, Rena and I celebrated 35 years of marriage. I took a vacation day and we went north and looked around in some shops in Holmes County. After a nice supper in a restaurant featuring Amish cooking, we headed home. Not far from home we had to stop and wait while a dairy herd crossed the road. It was milking time and the 15-20 cows were intent on getting to the milk house.
The following Monday Javin, our grandson, turned six years old. We celebrated his birthday with him on Sunday. He's a delight to us and the whole family.
The previous post told of our celebrating the completion of the Moody Aviation Cessna R182. While at MMS for repair, Moody Aviation leadership decided to upgrade the plane by incorporating some features of later editions of the model. Consequently, the airplane was repaired and modified by MMS to make it more useful in Moody Aviation's missionary pilot training program.

MMS said goodbye to the Cessna 182 from Moody Aviation. There was extensive damage to the airplane after a partial landing gear collapse and now two years later it is back in service. Paul Jones has put together a wonderful video of its depature. Click on this link to see it.

Weekend Work
Saturday morning in Eastern Pennsylvania was wet with limited visibility and a low ceiling. I arrived at the Smoketown Airport, near Lancaster, before nine to work at our display and talk about mission aviation in general and MMS in particular.
The little yellow plane is Steve Saint's Piper PA-14 in which, later in the day, he demonstrated the "bucket drop" his father developed. This is the plane MMS prepared for its role in the movie, "End of the Spear".
Mission organization displays were in one of the hangars. This old guy had a good time talking to many people, young and old, about MMS Aviation's part in the mission aviation community. Fellow MMSers Dale Coates, Ian Hengst and Dave Shelly also manned the display, which gave me the chance to get around and chat with other mission representatives.
