John M is taking a couple of students to Taylor Farm today. I'm way overdue for being under a wing, and planning to join them.
Come on down!

John brought students Kirk and Chris out for the day. I joined them shortly after noon. Look for both Kirk and Chris in the mountains soon. Winds were primarily from the southeast, and thus cross, but we had enough cycles to fly.
All four of us flew until about 4, when the wind strength picked up. then John got in some bag kiting in the LZ to finish the day.
See my (b)Log for fresh video of Kirk and me (with music, of course).

Re: Taylor Sat 2/21
Hey Craig it was good meeting you. Thanks for posting the video... it's cool to see my launch from a different perspective. Hopefully I'll be ready for the mountains soon, the hill training is fun but more work than I'm used to 
Re: Taylor Sat 2/21
Kirk, I live 45 minutes from Taylors. If you would like to meet up some time let me know. I could use the exercise and FL training is always good. I use to pay my kids to haul my harness and helmet back up the hill in the hot summer days. Gene
Re: Taylor Sat 2/21
Sure =P I'm taking lessons from John right now... so I go where he goes with regard to hill training. If you want I can shoot you an message next time we're planning on Taylor's. I'll be out of town this coming weekend though.
