22DU will be giving Young Eagle rides at KTSP Saturday morning for Girls in Aviation day. Maybe we could meet you at the flyout lunch L45 and do some formation and photos back to KVIS?!?

Back home , but not after the Santa Ana winds beat the frijoles out of me . Crossing into the Antelope Valley you could see mucho dust clouds a brewing on the desert floor . Light to Moderate all the way home from PMD . By 1100 the temp was already at 100 at KSEE and the wind was a howling out of the East . Due to my superior skills all 4 wheels made it onto the concrete and we called it a day . Thanks to ALL the KVIS gang for another superior Fly In !! WX was perfect and the flight to Columbia very enjoyable . I'll be posting the Sedona info. shortly .

Back home down and safe - another great gathering in Visalia. A great fly out adventure to an old mining town, some great flying and formation work/practice and an evening at Ira and Missy's like having dinner and drinks on a 5 star resort patio - Ira had his son on the BBQ and his daughter bringing us drinks - You guys sure know how to entertain. Dan's wife Gloria was there to greet us with refreshments and sandwiches on Friday while Dan, Ira and Dean chauffeured us around and kept us fed, quenched and happy. Thanks much guys - the KVIS host crowd is awesome!! I can't say enough about the hospitality at KVIS!!

I love the KVIS gathering. What a great bunch of folks. Thanks so much to Danny, Dean, and Ira and of course their better halfs for another great event. Awesome seeing new faces and especially the enthusiasm of young folks like Phil and Erin. You guys are bringing life back into this community.
Thanks
