Dwelling 'Mongst Angels

Pilot daydreaming

Head in clouds

Lost bearings



Forgot parachute

Now playing

Harp

With angels

Oohoohoo When your head's in the clouds your feet should be firmly planted on the ground. Love watching the pilots perform but it can get scarey. Great job. Good luck my friend. God Bless, JB
