Jim,
I sent this once earlier but it didn't go thru. My pictures we're too
large I think. Anyway... Weather improved here and it looked like I may
be able to scoot up before the afternoon rains started. I tried to fly
gold rush up at 10:30a but I hit low ceilings north of Nashville by the
KY border. I climbed up thru a hole only to see some cums to my north
in my path. As I was coming down thru a shrinking hole I did a 180 and
headed back. To my east was rain and the west was more. I quickly
pushed her back home and am safe in my man cave / hanger. It's now
pouring outside here. I need WX weather and I probably would have made
it.
I'm fighting a head cold as well so I've succumbed to the idea that I
wont be coming.
Maybe we all need to start our own DOTH to somewhere here in the
states. FYI we just seeded the last piece of runway that will connect
my 900 feet to another 2700 foot runway my friend owns for a total of
over 4,000 feet usable. It's more than we'll need but it's sure a nice
safety cushion. Here is a few pictures. This has been one of the best
projects I've ever got myself into. Lots of work but lots of fun.
Nothing like a cold one at the end of a long day in the heat. Maybe one
day we can have everyone in here for a camp out and some fun.
Sure wish I was there.
Best Regards,
Jeff R.
