6/12-13 Lucas Lodge

Your invited. I'll bring the wine, and beer.

This is truly Oregon's best kept secret!

The wife and I are going to stay Saturday night and part of Sunday. It is our anniversary.

The strip is emergency only, but mowed and opened for the emergency lunch, dinner, over night stay.

Pix from last May.

Looks great. But it's such a well-kept secret, I can't find the location of the strip. Please advise...

Hey Oregon180, glad your going to be there. What a great spot. You been there before? I'm not sure of my ETA. I hope by noon. The wife has one appointment Saturday morning. I'll see if I can get her to blow it off. Can I bring you a beer or some wine?? What do you like?

Come on brother BCPs. Life is short, time to fly now.

I am sure Linda will let you camp if you buy some food or pay for camping. Maybe a diesel donation for mowing the runway.

I see a campfire and cocktails on Saturday.

Come on brother BCPs. Life is short, time to fly now.

Cheers...Rob

Hi Brent, not sure of the ETA yet. I'll ask the wife when she can leave Saturday. I hope to be there by noon or 1PM. Good thing for you is sun don't set till 9PM. You could bring the whole family. Hows the new kid doing?

Cheers...Rob

Re: 6/12-13 Lucas Lodge

The whole Willamette Valley is socked in. The wife does not do IFR so we will wait till it burns off. Looks like 11-12. I'll be to Lucas 1-2 ish.

The wx man is calling for 81 in Portland today. If it doesn't break 80, that will break a record that has stood since 1896.

Good day!
