Then it's likely that your Mom has served me some ribs and beer!! I go every time I am there!! It's funny, last time I was there (last summer) we even commented on some of the folks there have been there a very long time and how cool it was that they had such long term employees!!

See you there some time!!

She probably has waited on you. There is only one other employee that has been there longer than Mom. If you ever heard of a waitress named Alice that is my Mom and my Aunt is Elieen

Done deal Mike... it was pretty windy.... The pot luck lunch was very good today...

I would have replied to you earlier, but went to the field about 8am, and
just got home around 5:15pm.....

but you know that we can fly floaters anytime also, if you
need a lake to fly off of ...

I did some night flying the last couple years, but this year I won't have my super decathlon
with the lights on it... had some issues with the plane, (wing warped or something)
so I retired it. Untill I can get it fixed.

I would say the best and most acceptable night fliers would be electric, due to possible noise issues...
My Decathlon has a Saito .82 on it, but mostly I just cruised around 1/2 throttle,
and no one got upset...... even had a few good compliments.... My ultimate goal is to light
up my Mini Funtana X.... that's gonna be a riot!
Gotta respect the very few neighbors we have, as they are awesome people!!!
Night flying is totally awesome, and I encourage it... So far, I'm the only in in the TORCM
club that has successfully and repeatedly accomplished many night flights....
(hmmm... UFO reports over Seneca County, Ohio????)

And yes, if there are at least two foamies that show up, we'll do a bash'em demo! The more,
the merrier... Spread the word.... This could be a blast... I enjoyed the foamy bash
at the Napolean Ohio Huckfest last year.... I think we started out with about 20 foamies!!!

We are also planning on a Foamy bash at the Big Bird Fly-in during August too as a noon-time
fun session...
