Winds and thunderstorms kept us on the ground for the first couple of days - Then the Tracy's had to leave. Here are the two video's from the trip. I stayed through the day of rain and the end of the week was excellent. Flew around the thumb, and gave all my cousins rides - including my cousins daughter who was married on last Friday!
