We didn't make it, 1 hour and half in traffic. Rich Noon and I turned around and went through DC to get home. Sorry we didn't make it. Hope it was fun. Gene

Sorry to hear that you hit traffic. It was a nice day at Smithsburg. I had seven flights from the top and Ward had his fill too. All launches and landings were good. It even stayed cold enough that the mud wasn't bad at all. The wind was cross from the north at times, but it was launchable most of the time, maybe 10-15 mph.
