Assuming Homey will soon post photos, just a quick post op report - a great weekend of flying, learning, eating and sampling local beverages. Sadly, a major disappointment was had by Tony Ginn, who epic failed to return home with an unopened Polygamy Porter - a locally brewed stout. A valid reason to return soon. Homey is almost as good a cook as he is a pilot and feasted us all (Including She Who Eye Wership) Saturday night at his home. Great eats and great banter - I really hope a call sign does not come out of our dinner conversation.
Wx wise, thankfully there were clouds, but no rain during the weekend, as Scott Ginn's highly polished Aluminum mirror T-18 would have been challenging to fly adjacent to in a cloudless sky.
When the Ginn's and Brian Maisler departed, Darcy and I were treated to a three ship three pass formation breakfast airshow off our deck. As an added community relations bonus, the timing (as one of my neighbors later informed me) could not have been better as her church (two short blocks away) service had just finished and the local congregation was also treated to such from the parking lot......A sign perhaps.....??......

I'd post photos if I had'em. Unfortunately Lohan hasn't come through with the promised pics she took while flying with us. Fraser may have better luck sweet talking her out of them. I have a couple standing in front of the planes pics, but those are typically not the most interesting...

It was a gooood weekend!
