Thinking of Smithsburg Friday afternoon but don't want to be the only one on the hill. Anyone thinking of Smithsburg this afternoon?

Re: Smithsburg Friday (12/2) Afternoon?
Made it out to Smithsburg for a look-see Saturday (12/3) afternoon. Arrived at about 2:30. No one there. Overcast, and winds were in the 12 knot range about 30 degrees cross from the left (westerly). It was easily launchable into the wind from some of the westerly facing slopes. Hill is wide open and nicely manicured (except for a couple of groundhog tunnels); no corn stalk stubs as in some previous years. Ground was solid and not muddy at all.
I don't like to fly without someone around so left after a hike around the field.
