Hi Daniel

I've missed the days when we would carpool together. You were always great company. Hope you enjoy your new job and please come back and visit!

Mark said it well. I was just catching up with Sammi the other weekend and thinking "what a great life they have, and it couldn't happen to nicer people". I think that only Hugo could make a noise adequate to express our sadness.

Karen

Good day at Taylor. Dan and I swapped gliders for a couple of flights. I did 10 flight total, including one forward. Karen had 7 flights and Dan 5. Hugh showed up and flew four times. Then we adjourned to Potomac Point Winery. It was eh. The best wine they had there came from California grapes-- a C...

I think the date has changed to May 2 because of a scheduling conflict

I'm leaning toward High Rock.. I agree with Bodner--it looks North cross, colder and stronger at Pulpit.

But I will follow the lemmings-- even if it means the drive to Pulpit..... and then back to High Rock like so many times before.

Anyone else thinking of Ridgley on Sunday? ADDS shows more West-ish for Sunday.

Matthew

Thinking ETA 1pm.

Matthew

I'm leaning towards Edith's. But the boss says we're going to Ridgely. So we're going to Ridgely.

Matthew

ADDS, MRF and NOAA text still calling 10-15 at High Rock. Only the hourly showing stronger. Woodstock will not work for the fly in.

Let's start at High Rock for flying.

I'll call the folks not on the server.

Mostly cloudy, with a high near 83. South wind 5 to 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New rainfall amounts of less than...

Karen, Mark and I are still heading towards Edith's hoping for a late day flight.

ETA 2pm in LZ.

Still looks SE at end of day and I think there is a better chance of it glassing off there than at Daniel's

Matthew

It is with the greatest of sadness that I must report the passing of our dear friend Judy McCarty. She passed away this morning, May 18, at a hospice in Philadelphia after suffering from cancer of the bile. Judy was an amazing friend and mentor to so many of us who were coming up in the ranks as han...

Head is not in the game today after all.

Karen and I are bailing on the rock.

Sorry,

Richard Hays will be stopping by in the afternoon on way home from Pittsburgh to help wire crew.

Matthew

Everyone still on for High Rock???

Matthew

Matthew

We have chores to do and can only fly one day-- leaning towards tomorrow unless I get some good arm twisting.

Matthew

Back before we were all slaves to the Internet, we would have the occasional Observer meeting. Maybe we should have an Observer meeting-- in person-- no WebEx.
