Re: Winter has arrived
Freezing rain in the forecast for the weekend but 50s today! Exercised my airplane to commute over and give two lessons in what I have come to call the "Unicorn Pacer." She's s little rough around the edges but everything works and the engine runs well.

The Pacer in the foreground is a 1950 PA-20-115. It originally had narrow gear (like all Pacers then) but it has an O-235 and no flaps, I haven't seen a production list but it sounds like they didn't build many of them! Here is the thread discussing them:

Meanwhile here in Texas it got up to 80 degrees and the dogs played in the river.

Re: Winter has arrived
We never had a real winter in Northern Virginia. The most we had was about 2” of snow at one time. We had a couple of good stretches of cold temperatures, but that’s it. Even the ice runway at Alton Bay in NH was only open for only about five weeks and had to close because of the warm temperatures. I’m glad I landed on it the first week it opened.
I guess it’s time to get ready for Sun & Fun!
