Daniel's helicopter ride

That's right, folks. Daniel can check another thing off his six-year-old bucket list. He has enjoyed a scenic ride over the Shenandoah Valley in a helicopter. Without his mother riding along... or any other relative, friend, or acquaintence for that matter. Just "his own self," the pilot, and the helicopter.  And no doors.  Nobody mentioned there would be no doors.  (I do not know if doors would have made me feel all that much better, but they couldn't have hurt.) Holy mackerel. I think I was more nervous than he was. But this kid, I'm telling you, he has more adventurous spirit in his little finger than the rest of us put together. Good grief. You gotta love him.
