Are we here?
gpt
Yes sir. How do you like air traveling?
human
It's wonderful, but I did almost get heart failure when the motor stopped,
gpt
Begun to wish you had brought your rubbers?
human
My rubbers and a boat.
gpt
Is this place near enough?
human
Plenty.
gpt
Glad you didn't try to jump over, Uncle Norman. How are your air-legs, wobbly?
human
A bit cramped. He stretched them both, found they would work, and in a moment he mounted the boat pier.
gpt
I don't expect to be more than half an hour.
human
We'll wait here,
gpt
Oh, look at the hydroplane,
human
They are calling Her Highness names,
gpt
She's a hydroplane for the minute, Jim replied.
human
Let's taxi around the water.
gpt
It's getting kind of rough. Up at North Hero it was as smooth as a sheet, Bob answered.
human
Wish I knew more about water and its tricks.
gpt
I think we're going to have a blow,
human
There are some black clouds over south and west and they sure do look as if they are in a hurry. We'll have them on our tail as we go back. Got plenty of gas? I read that in some places Lake Champlain is three hundred feet deep, and it's wet clear to the bottom,
gpt
There's an extra tank besides what is in the bus. Guess I'll feed her up. Somehow, I think a nice Texas desert is pleasanter to land on than water.
human
Why don't you go back above the shore?
gpt
We have to land on the cove when we get home, so why switch gears. If there's time this evening, we might locate a place to land on the farm, but we'll have to ask your uncle about that or we'll be coming down on some field he's planted.
human
O.K. with me.
gpt
Whoooo boys,
human
An audience. Do your prettiest, Your Highness,
gpt
It isn't every farmer who has a couple of pilots to bring him to town in a private plane, free of charge,
human
Certainly looks like the farmers are getting some relief, another added.
gpt
They are going up in the air about it.
human
It's time we did something, Mr. Fenton responded.
gpt
Shall I get in now, Jim?
human
Sure.
