    Well we shot Stewarts paint yesterday and wow. Flows out nice and when I got some on my finger I poured a little water on a rg and wiped it of. Amazing. Jason has done a great job and will continue with some folks who couldn't come till this weekend.

    Bushwheel Bill Duncan and Diana got here last night in the Bushwheel mobile with their miniature Australian Sheppards Krome and Scout who are siblings of our puppie Pokie. That was a fun reunion.

    Lots of stuff going on today. The snow is melting and it is gonna be 59 degrees today. My folks should get here around lunch along with the Oklahoma Super Cub contingent. I bet the two Alaskans will straighten them out. Clayton's BBQ for lunch and Alaskan King Crab legs for dinner tonight. I'm gonna loose my girlish figure with all this good food. Will post some more photos tonight.

    Too bad the weather guessers guessed so badly. Supposed to be clear and sunny all day from Memphis to Graham. The Dallas ceilings went above 100 feet about 5PM. Didn't make it.

    Arh! Weather forcasters!

    They say it's not an exact science but I often wonder if the buildings they work in have windows and if so, do they ever look out of them?

    Still I suppose there a some benefits to being grounded half way home due weather - nice warm motel in pretty Warrambool, lovely companion, can't go anywhere so how to fill in the time?

    30 years later I can't wait to take her flying again - and getting stuck due weather will be a bonus

    Weather was awesome here. Sun and fun. All the snow melted and we had a great time all day and topped it off with some Alaskan King Crab last night.

    Pierce - will you stop talking about King Crab!

    Everytime I read about King Crab (or BBQ pig or gulf shrimp) I start to dribble down my chin and make a mess!

    And as for showing pictures of the food - that's really mean.

    Book me in for next year - I'll get there somehow!

    Well the seminar has wound down and we are back to work and to try and recover some lost sleep. Had a great time with old friends, met lots of new friends and learned a lot. Got some great ideas for some neat things to put on the website so we can share some of the technical things that went on. I stayed up last night and put captions on my pictures so anyone who wasn't here can get a feel for what went on for almost two weeks. Hope to see and meet more folks next year.
