ARTIST: Nothing More      SONG: If I Were

..."...Just tell me, tell me how to keep this...And I'll be alright...Just tell me, tell me what's the secret...And I'll hold it tight...'Cause I don't want to spend another moment without you again...Just tell me, tell me how to keep this so it never ends..."...




The drive to the lookout point takes a little over twenty minutes and we don't talk on the way because I have my IPod plugged into the radio and I sing loudly along with Awolnation. 

Faith just sat there watching me with a huge grin on her face and when I'd get really into the singing, she would laugh that loud peel of laughter that I love to hear so much. 

When I park the van in the open space overlooking the airstrip, there is no one else here and I smile because I was right. 

I shut the van off after I open the sunroof and roll all the windows down before reclining my seat the whole way back. I glance over to see Faith doing the same and now we are ready to watch all the different types of air craft take off and land.

...

"Look! That one just tipped its wing." I say as I point up in the sky.

"Did he do that on purpose?"

"Probably but this is a flight school so maybe he just messed up." I chuckle.

"Have you ever seen anything crazy happen up here?"

"You need to be a little more specific Faith. I have seen a few things here both during the day time and at night."

"Well I meant like with one of the planes but now you got me wondering about what you've seen at night time too."

"Okay well, one time me and Jake were up here and we saw one of those little choppers down there...see that orange and black one? Well it wasn't that one but it was one like that. Anyhow it took off and started going higher and higher but I think whoever was flying might have went a little higher than they were supposed to...I don't really know for sure but I think choppers aren't really meant to fly that high but like I said the chopper went real high up and all of a sudden it started...like...teetering from side to side and then the front of the chopper did this crazy nose dive and the back of it started whipping back and forth really fast...Christ, Jake and I thought we were getting ready to watch this thing crash but then it stopped all of its crazy movements and steadied out again; a few minutes later it landed without any problems."

"I bet that was really something to see."

"It was! My heart was pounding and I think Jake screamed like a girl; I'll never forget seeing that."

Faith is just about to say something else when one of the bigger planes flies right over top of the van. 

The plane was so low that we could feel the vibration as it moved above us. 

Faith looked scared at first but then she started giggling like a little kid as she watched the plane shoot back up in the air and then dive back down towards the ground before landing on the strip. 

A full hour goes by as we watch all the different planes take off and land; a few of them even did a couple of tricks in the air.

 A few minutes go by without any planes in the air and I grab the steering wheel so I get a better look at the landing strip.
