All the pumpkins at the 2 places I went to were to big. So I went for cantaloupe instead.

But don't you have a Maule?

I had the same issue so I'm bringing peaches.

I was going to go with a grapefruit or something! haha All I have is the storm window!

I'm a guy, I like big melons.

So if I actually drop a pumpkin, I'll be the winner of the Pumpkin drop

IFR Ready,Set,Go

If we arrive Saturday morning (8-9) will there be a group flying out and about? Also are most staying in tents on the dry lake bed?

Weather's looking great down here in Southern Oregon! I'm bringing a buddy who's a new pilot and Skywagon fan (naturally) with me.

Should be down there by early afternoon! Hoping to hook up with Highroad on the way down.

Work has screwed me again guys, I have to be in the office now tomorrow, PLUS both the wife and kids are sick, so I'm not likely to make it. A chance I might buzz up Saturday, but don't get worried if I don't show. Really bummed and pissed, as I really haven't had a good flying trip this year due to work and other stuff.

Have fun, be safe, take pictures. If you get buzzed by a red RV4 Saturday, that was me.

Yes that work thing. the thing that pays for the airplane. big project needs to ship out next tues

Best case I get there Saturday around when the keg gets tapped... but that's not so bad if I can pull it off..

fly safe

With much weeping and gnashing of teeth I must regrettably not attend. I caught the flu last weekend and despite my efforts with anti-biotics and everything I'm just not over it yet. I took a flight today and even just going up to 3000 gave me a pounding sinus headache. Definitely out for Friday. I'll see how I feel on Saturday.

Waaaaaaaa....

On the ground Lakeview Oregon and Terry's gassing up is 180 and we are about one hour and 40 minutes to the lake from here

We're in Susanville for gas and bathroom. See you soon!

couldn't get out, long morning walking around in circles and cussing the fog.

Finally got off the coast. Special vfr then up the coast and east up the rivers before turning south. Clear blue now with a 6pm eta.

Just got back from the lake bed and Zane has a special request.... He forgot his chair, could someone flying in tomorrow please bring an extra. Thanks! 22 planes so far!

EDIT: Don't worry about the chair, Cory has it covered.

I'll be heading in late afternoon on Saturday. I might have a buddy riding along. Better late than never.

The plane is packed, gassed, and ready for an 8am launch. Should be there around noon. So now the question is, should Zane have Sadie's pink princess chair or Tyler's monkey chair? Guess he's too big for either and would have to answer to one of them when he broke it. Best to bring a real chair I guess.

Planning wheels up at 7am, fuel up in Lake View and should be on the lake bed by 11ish.. Anyone else flying down from Bend?

We'll launch just as soon as I pick up the kids from school.....should be there by 4 pm. See ya'll then......seeing the pics from today is great! Can't wait to be there.
