No...he was the tie breaker. Barring some divine intervention, this will be our last. Besides, I don't want to be in a nursing home when the last is leaving the house!

Congratulations!

What a beautiful family. Enjoy every moment. These are the best days of your lives. The only thing I dislike about aging is missing those wonderful years of little ones and youthful vigor.

Franklin is a better middle name than Lycoming for sure!

Much happiness to you and your loved ones.

A great day for your family indeed.
Looking forward to seeing you all in the tent at Caveman.... sometime.
Promise not to blow dust around !!!!

Thanks Z3 and Flightlogic. We are savoring it...even the short nights. One way or another we'll see you at Caveman. It will be interesting to see how insane three will make it.

Another reason Franklin is better is for the laugh. You see, Adam can't quite say it so it comes out as "Tyler Freakin Wolf". We get some funny looks from people when he tells them what Tyler's name is because they aren't sure if they heard him right. Then they get a good laugh when they understand what he was trying to say.

Well I've been having the more kids than seats problem for a while. So if u have 125k or less to throw at the problem what's the best plane for the job?

Hey Blu,

Your results will vary, but my research for my needs pointed to either a 205 or a Cherokee 6. After going to fly Rich's 205, I was sold that it would be a great plane that would meet my needs and still give good backcountry performance...especially when equipped right. It gives you a lot of bang for the buck. There have been a few threads with info on them. Here is one of them:

Everyone that has flown them for backcountry flying seems to like them, they cost less than 206s, and people say it will carry what it was designed to haul.

Congrats Grassstrip!! Seems like we've been trading baby greetings for years now! They do grow up, don't they?
