Calvin paragliding

Calvin has been taking paragliding lessons along with Colin and Greg.  He was ready for his first solo flight.  You can look on Colin's FB page to see the actual video of him taking off- literally jumping off a very high cliff.  He did a great job and it was quite an experience to watch my child flying so high in the air above me!!! 


This was the radio guy at the bottom who gave Calvin instructions which mostly consisted of "right, left, right, right, left," etc."



Friend and mentor Greg, coming to congratulate Calvin.  Thanks for making it in time for the landing, guys!  What great friends we have:)


Colin will be ready for his solo flight soon.  Here he is riding tandem with their awesome flight instructor.  Calvin has aspirations of becoming a paragliding instructor someday.  I think you'd be great, and maybe if I work up my courage, you can take me on a flight someday:)
