When I was writing the previous post, I was looking for photos of the planes that took us out of China. As I found one, my husband suddenly exclaimed "That plane is called a Gooney Bird! I flew in one when I was in the Air Force ROTC, and the pilot actually let me fly it for a short time." How interesting that my hubby actually flew the same kind of plane that transported me out of China so many years ago!
Hi Ruthie! Just think how long people have been flying and I have never graced the skys. I wish I had early on in life because now with all of the crashes lately, I probably never will. Great story! Deb
Ruthie - I just caught up on your posts. Your experiences as a child in China were amazing and I am intrigued with them. Thanks so much for sharing. Sweetie
Oh, Ruthie..I just read about you, your mom and dad going on different planes out of China. I know your mom and dad both were just beside themselves with worry. Thankfully, you were all held in God's hands....whew...my heart beat a little faster, just reading about it. If my little girl had to go thru that, I would have just about died right then and there...' Thanks for sharing your amazing story with us... xo bj
Yes, I agree. That is very interesting and exciting too...Thanks for your comments about breakfast. We do have LaPeeps here. In fact, it is the first place I ate breakfast in Phoenix. The elders of the church took me there for breakfast when I first visited the church here. We also like IHOP. I would like breakfast after church but Charlotte doesn't so we eat breakfast early before the morning worship and then lunch afterward.
My DH and I are enjoying being retired, spending time with family, and doing some traveling in our RV.
My goal for this blog is to make it fun,uplifting and encouraging.
