I got braggin rights :>)))))

They had there flyin at Animas Airpark last weekend. I flew to it. Nearly a 7 mile flight. :lol: It was a lot of fun. Not too many flyins, maybe 15-20 planes, but they probably had 250-300 folks there. Poker run 1st thing Sat Morning. I think there were 25 planes prticipating. I took a young fella with me that wanted to go or a plane ride. I think he got more than he expected 8) . The guy with the winning hand got nearly $500.00/ Not bad.

Then the spotlanding contest, which I won :shock: =D> :lol: , see attached photos

Then an afternoon of victory margaritas, followed by a great roasted pig dinner with all the fixins, includin ice cream and chocolate syrup for desert, then a good band, and more margaritas.

All in all, a pretty damn good day.

If you want to go up, pull back on the controls. If you want to go down, pull back farther.

Nice job Gary! Sounds like it was a lot of fun. I just hope the fuel bill to get there didn't break you! :mrgreen:
