| Tuesday Evening (Sept. 21) - After arriving in Salina we taxied over to a Fix Based Operator (FBO) to try and locate a place to stay for the night. They were very nice and offered us the free use of a "crew car". It turned out to be an crotchety old Chrysler, but we weren't complaining! Trying to find accommodations wasn't the easiest. Since we were going "economical" we decided to try Motel 6. I guess I had forgotten what Motel 6's were like. We looked at two rooms, but finally opted for a refund, and went to Days Inn. Much much nicer. Wednesday (Sept. 22) - Next morning we slept in a little. We knew we didn't have as far to travel to get to Collegedale TN. Because of weather we opted to fly further south toward Memphesis before cutting across to Collegedale. We stopped at Jonesboro for gas, but after learning that the gas was $4.99 we opted to fly to another airport where it was only $3.59 a gallon. When you fill up 45 gallons at a shot, it makes a huge difference. By 7pm Eastern Time we were circling for landing at Collegedale. Thursday (Sept. 23) - Today we spent the whole day playing around with the airplane and testing it out. Tomorrow we'll finish up our errands and fly toward Florida. Luke and I will spend the weekend with a pastor friend of mine, and then early Sunday morning we'll shoot out across the water toward Guyana. Thank you for your prayers.
