I'm thinkin' about it. Will depend on how much I can

Doubt I'd be able to be there before 5:00 or so.

WWW not the world wide web but Work, Weather and Wife. Nothing seems to cooperate. I have been to Heidleberg, Havana, Hanoi and hedding to Helsinki. Plus my son made the 11yr Allstars and went to State at Baltimore. They came in 2nd and he did hit a homerun. Also almost lost an eye a week before during practice, got hit right in the eye (eyeball) and had blood behind the cornea in the iris. Doing well now. Anyways, I am reading the posts like crazy and going nuts not being able to get out. Fly safe. Gene

I'd go in a second (yes! I'd actually like to go to a training hill!)...but my glider is at Blue Sky. I'm really wanting to buy back my Falcon so I can always have one glider at home and one at the flight park. :)

I plan to bring my glider home this weekend so I can start using it during the week.

Hi, Gene-

I know I'd trade flying time for the amazing travel experiences you've
had!

It's the dog dayz of August now -- no wonder the list-serve is a bit
over-heated -- not the worst time to let your glider gather dust. I
feel like fall is just around the corner and sources say it will rival
the good spring we had this year. Hope to see you out soon and to
catch some lore from your exotic journeys!

Daniel

P.S. Make sure your immunizations are up to date prior to going to
Helsinki. I hear they have a nasty syndrome there. Makes you like your
employer.

Ah, man, you sold your Falcon?! I was lucky because I was told early on:
don't ever sell your ez-2-fly wing unless you're buying another. You'll
always miss it if you do.

Yeah, I knew I shouldn't sell it...but alas, I needed the cash to fund the newer wing. Thankfully, my Eagle is "ez-2-fly" too! (Just a little faster.) :)

I'm hoping that second light-airs wing will be...my paraglider! - Hugh
