This past week has been a good "sports" week for Strider. He played his last 2 baseball games of the season -- and one of them was in the evening under the lights, which made him feel very grown up.
Saturday afternoon, Pete took Strider and Rayna to the Warriors and Warbirds Air Show at the little Monroe airport near here -- it turned out to be quite exciting! The pilots/planes re-enacted quite a battle which was apparently quite loud and dramatic -- Pete said they could even feel a big wall of heat when a bunch of the "bombs" went off.
Then Strider and Rayna both took turns "flying" in our friend JD's helicopter.... It was a good start to our Veteran's Day celebration!
And then he was very excited to meet a real-live NFL player on Saturday.... At Wingate's homecoming game, one of the Pete's former students, David Jones, who now plays for the Cincinnati Bengals came over to talk to them -- and Strider has been rattling off his stats ever since.
