June 8th:
Late Saturday evening as the flight was nearing Calgary, the plane did a loop outside of Calgary. This is a little unusual and we could see Calgary in the distance . The pilot comes on the intercom to indicate that the previous plane had just landed and they closed the airport down due to the lightning and rain and hail that was overshadowing the Calgary Airport.
The pilot indicated that the we may have to fly up to Edmonton if the fuel gets low but for now we will circle around Calgary. After about 15 minutes we were coming from more different angle than usual flying into the Calgary Airport and we landed nicely.
Caught the plane from Calgary to Lethbridge and Bonnie was kind enough to pick me up at 12:30 in the morning.
On June 9th was a relaxing day from Bonnie's to having supper at Charlie, Karen, Alex and Garrett ... my first seasonal BBQ ... yummy.
A lot of laughs and a great way to start my western days.
