Hemlock Colors









Cody and I decided that we had better make use of the gorgeous day we had and get the kayaks out. We headed to Hemlock Lake and met Ron at the north end and were rewarded with absolutely perfect conditions. You be the judge, the pictures say it all.

Bristol Grad Party








Katrin did a great job organizing the graduation party for this years students and there was a good turnout and a few sled rides were taken. I jumped in for a ride up and a tandem with Matt, then hung out for some dogs on the grill, good conversation and a beer. Here are a few pics from our flight.

Team Challenge





The final day of the TTTTC was canceled, so I decided to pack up and hit the road on Saturday so I did not have to drive the whole 14 hrs on Sunday.
Even though I only flew three times and two of them were sledders, I enjoyed the week camping and hanging out with new and old friends, attending seminars with a bunch of top notch speakers, and exploring the Sequatchie Valley. I see the huge potential for cross country flying there and will go back and hopefully the weather will cooperate next time.
Here are a couple pics of window rock, right down the road from launch and name sake of the road it is on, a few pilots watching the brave souls flying in strong conditions on Saturday and the rock at the entrance.
