Re: Caveman Spring Flyin 2011 May 13-15

The rain was moving in so I beat feet to Madras on the east side of the Cascades. Now I am properly positioned for my escape to Elko and sun in the morning. See you tomorrow Mike.

See, this is how you do it. Arrange the flight around the wx. I had 4 reasons to stay at home. I said no,I am going flying. When I die I won't be saying I wish I had torched the burn pile, fixed the leak at the rental, mowed the grass, and trained the new employee at Amark. No I won't. I'll bet those jobs are waiting when I get back, except the leak, I called the plumber.

Cheers

No, No, No, the alcohol is to keep the sketers/no seeums away. Very important. Check Snopes. :D

Re: Caveman Spring Flyin 2011 May 13-15

Well, no problem with extra for you, but I've seen the lovely wife eat, I may have to make 2 trips :lol:
We'll have plenty, I just bought extra today, expecting a pretty good turnout.
Guess we will C-ya Fri.
We will be going over to Gateway Fri. AM for b'fast if you want to meet there. Or if you get to Caveman early enugh, you can go over with us.

Glad to hear your east of the range now. I was begining to wonder how/if you'd get out. The weather is looking good from here all the way down. I'll be looking to be home around 4 if things don't pile-up at work. A cold one will be waiting for both of us! We'll maybe we should go for a flight first?:D

I can't wait to get going - this is going to be good!

Mañana,
Mike

Made the right call getting out of NW Orygun, all fogged in. It is very nice here on the east side of the Cascade Range. There is some clouds and light showers to get through to NV. Not a game ender. So GUMP GUMP hope you come over!! BRO. MR. SCOUT! you too. We got some serious drinks and fire!

Cheers...Rob
