Lets try this again... WE HAVE A GO!

Friday 8:30 pm....
So far the weather looks like it will cooperate, it doesn't look like the predicted rain for today is going to happen, if it does it's not supposed to be much. Ralph has checked in with Kip and we are a GO!!
Please, remember to drive along the sides of the runway as much as possible. It's important that we don't chew up the ground as it thaws out during the day.
Times are our normal 11:00 till 5:00 or so, depending on field conditions and daylight. Set-up folks should be there by 10:00 so we can get a good start.
I emailed Ken from Performance Hobbies and he's planning to be there, so you can get pretty much anything you might need on site.
We'll probably set up in our normal configuration, with the flight line near the ditch, since the house isn't occupied, but that could change with rain and wind, so keep an eye towards what folks are doing when you get there. Winds are predicted to be from 050 at 10 am, 360 at about noon, and 330 at 4 pm, between 4 & 8 mph. This puts it heading away from the Simpson's side and toward the trees on the other side. It does look like it will only get into the high 30's or low 40's so dress appropriately. Roy, if you could bring your fire pit this time it'd be welcome. If someone colud bring some extra wood to keep it going that'd be great. I have a bucket of scraps from the shop but if you have a couple of pieces to contribute it'd keep it going for a while.
That's all for now, See you THERE!

COLD!!! But, a great day, 3 L1 certs, TARC got several flights in, Mitchell College's USLI team got in a few flights, all in all a really big day.
Remember to dress warmly tomorrow, it's supposed to be a few degrees warmer but not much.
If someone has a few sticks of firewood please bring it for the pit. Remember to drive on the edges of the runway. It's in fair shape, lets work hard to keep it that way.

Congrats to Sandy on his successful L2, and condolences to Louise for the incineration of her MiniMag. Big thanks to all who made it a great weekend, Roy will have the complete wrap-up shortly I'm sure.
Start working on February!
