I am sitting her with a tear in my eye this morning, not in sadness but in happiness. My faith in humanity was renewed this morning as I retrieved my morning mail. There were four checks totaling $250.00 for me to use for fuel for the Minam Lodge Project. Pilots are the best people in the world. I got one response with the checks. I think he summed it up for me. His letter to me read:
Bob,I have been enjoying your posts on various forums and your videos on you tube for a while now. I have been flying for 32 years and the same 1968 Cessna 182 for 23 years. Last august I flew to Minam for breakfast for the first time and used your pop over to Red's technique on the way out. My schedule prevents me from participating in the Minam event on the 14th but hope this small donation will help you and to keep this flying gem open to all of us.
Your fellow 182 Pilot
