Ohio - Day 1

On New Year's Eve, we headed to the airport to make our way to Ohio.

Helping Daddy check our bags:

There was an art installation that had various quotes placed on the windows and walls. This one by Emily Dickinson said, "Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality." The installation is called "to those who go". I only saw a few of the pieces, but I really liked this idea. (I'm sure all the pilots who are wandering the airport while sitting short-call like feeling enlightened as well.)

From Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass, "That shadow, my likeness, that goes to and fro, seeking a livelihood, chattering, chaffering; How often I find myself standing and looking at where it flits; How often I question and doubt whether that is really me; --But in these, and among my lovers, and caroling my songs, O I never doubt whether that is really me."

Watching the cars and buses drive up to the terminal:

There's our airplane- Frontier with Sheldon the Sea Turtle:

First time the boys walked onto a plane by themselves:

Hello, City of Dayton:

The boys were anxious to stretch their legs, but they did a great job on the flight:

Checking out the gift shop:

Of course, they liked the shot glasses the best. Just their size:

Monkey snacking:

Making sure the organ was still working:

Jordan! Jordan! Jordan! Hey, Jordan! Look at us, Jordan! Jordan!

Hold me, Mom or as the boys say, "I hold you, Mom?"
