Looks west and brisk on Sunday.

Anyone up for Woodstock?

Yes, it would seem so.

We flew Dickies today and it was definitely.... weird.

Light on launch and grew to be very cloudy with very mellow but ubiquitous lift.

By 3 or so it started blowing over the back, leaving a couple stranded on launch :(

Tomorrow looks similar, with less post frontal weirdness and more sun and more wind. Could be a very nice day. Recommend arriving earlier than we did today. Plan on getting up to the gate by 12 tomorrow.

And the leaves are still beautiful, but it is past peak by a week or two now.
