Nice pictires Josh! I'll try to post a few I took later tonight. Rachel is on my computer,so I snuck down stairs and fired up Heathers lap top. Keep the pictures coming dude. That camera of yours does a great job!

Jacqui and I will probably sneek out to the field after lunch today.Just going to fly her GeeBee a few times. She wants a little more practice before going to the Nall.
Bless her lil ole heart. She's up in her sewing shop now making wing bags for my Pitts. I tried to sneek up there twice to get a look, but had objects being thrown at me to keep me at the bottom of the stairs!!!! LOLOL

Thanks for coming down guys, I had a blast shoting the bull with yall and the flying was great. You should have stayed just a few more minutes. I had 2 interesting moments, The tree everyone was talking about is now 4 feet shorter I did manage to safely land without any more damage. you would be amazed on how good a SU-31 flys with a big slab of pine tree stuck in the wing. You guys must have started a fad with the lowrider planes, cause darn if I didnt turn one into a lowrider also

Yep,,,we had a great time flying with the Sanford guys. Had a little wind to contebd with, but it didnt stop us from have'n fun! This was their 25th anniversary for this event.
That little Adam is quite a kid! Smart little feller to! On the prop issue, I had broken a prop doing some crazy stuff over the tall grass and needed to get another one. Adam walks up and ask what happened. I told him I broke my prop, and didnt know where I was going to get another one in time to fly again that day. ( keep in mind Robert was in the pits) Well,,,,I asked Adam would he call the "Propeller Company" for me and see what they could do. So, I dailed Roberts cell phone and handed the phone to Adam. After a few rings, Robert answers on the other end. Adam tells what happened and asked if we could get prop delivered to the field. After they finish their phone conversation Adam and I walk back to the impound area to turn in my pin. Then, out of nowhere comes Robert running up to the counter holding this NEW PROP! It was so cool. Adam says' Wow, that was a fast delivery"! LOL It went great, and Adam was 'The Man". We really enjoyed hanging out with him. He loves planes and he's pretty up to snuff on the different models. He even knew what plane Josh was flying.

Here's a few pictures I took that day. Not many, as I was too busy flying and having fun. We look forward to the next one there.
