Scott C and I went there for some very early morning flights. It was cold but great. The launches were difficult due to very wet grass and no wind. Forward launches with all of the layers of clothing were the only options.
We did a cross country flight to the west. I buzzed the property of an acquaintance from a couple of years ago. Fred was considering joining us in our rag wing lunacy but his wife Grace talked him out of it. His home's waypoint was still marked in my GPS and we were headed that way so I flew by the property fairly low. He has at least a couple of horses on the property so I didn't get too close but waved at whoever was in the barn at the time.
The air was very smooth early on and it was great to skim the ground in any direction. It was quite cold down low but there was a thermo-cline at about 250' to 300' AGL and the air higher was very much warmer.
Our motors both ran great. Thanks, Lance!
