Earlier this year, my sister-in-law Lauren was diagnosed with breast cancer. She underwent surgery, radiation, and chemo. So far so good! 15 years ago my mother went through almost exactly the same thing. Luckily, Mom has been cancer free for over 10 years.
This spring, my wife Andi decided it was time to do something to help out. She committed to the 3-day walk for breast cancer. This involved training to walk 60 miles over 3 days and raising at least $2200.
This weekend, the preparation was over and it is was time to walk. Andi raised over $2500 and walked several hundred miles in training. Needless to say, we are very proud of her. My daughter Megan and I did our part by doing some flyovers of the evening campground. Andi was proud to tell the women in camp that the plane was me and Megan, and that we built the plane in the garage! Some strange looks followed.......
This camp is some production - hundreds of pink tents, shower trailers, medical facilities, and chow wagons.
Pink is theme for this event - they may take it a bit too far - but all for a good cause!
From the air:
Megs and I on the flight home. She is wearing our home-made clarity aloft-style headset(she liked it better than the lightspeed)
