Scheming on Highland Aug20th, should be good if no OD. I'll look at weather in AM.
Any thoughts out there?

Commitments on Saturday evening, but I will try to get out to Highland tomorrow, if only to express
some support after everything they've been through.

I think it looks like a nice soarable day, with conditions improving during the day. Dr jack not predicting amazing ceilings, but i think it will be a nice day to be in the sky. Probably arrive 11:30 am ish.

Light wind and lift but lift improved starting after 2:00 pm when Carlos started to stay up. I got towed up and released at 2:25 and found some lift where Carlos was and eventually got to cloud base+ where Joe Gregor joined me for a while. Had a nice 1:05 flight. When I landed the sky looked great but pilots where having trouble find the lift. I think all solo pilots got some soaring in.

There was a mix of weak lift and sometimes stronger lift, during my flight.
Weak most of the time.
Dave Rice had a couple of fights. Paul, Joe, Kirk, Christian had flights as well.
John had the FOD.
Enjoyable day
