    We are in Perry hoping to get in today. Spent the day visiting with the Rans factory folks who are also stuck here.

    It's Florida and raining-well who would have thought. Personally I will be glad when the rest of the piles of snow next to the runway melt. Can finally see about half my yard and some days the pond is thawed- not today. That dam groundhog lied big time this year, 6 weeks my ass. Have fun guys, see you in Wis.

    Or a breakfast, Whitfords would be about half way, it's between Roch. and Syr. They have breakfasts at least once a month, if spring ever arrives.

    Ahhh, so sorry about your sun and fun free flying
    still about two feet of snow on the village strip and the lakes are all ice. It won't be long now... One more trip to the mountain, thinking Pika glacier this time, then it's time to pull skis and reinstall my wheels.

    Flew down on Wednesday and returned today. Good weather and a tailwind going down and coming back. It was nice to spend some time in 80+ degree weather.

    Where were you parked? We got out this morning. Got just north of Montgomery Alabama before the wall of thunderstorms from the gulf to Canada I guess.

    We had a great time, good to see both Steve and Juergen. We had a nice tailwind coming home although I wish we could have stayed until Sunday.

    You weren't too far from Newnan. You shudda stopped by, could have got your plane out of the WX and a place to stay!
