Fun flight today from Alternator.
Tried to get past La Cumbre but my timing did not work.
Ended up low on the saddle and following butterflies to the front of cathedral
So I ended up scratching a bit in front of westbowl for a while
Cb was around 3850 or so
So nice to see clouds around again!
hour and a 1/4 flight
Super fun for June!
Happy Birthday Dave!!!

That was my lame attempt at a poetic description of how friking low I was
Low enough to be able to tell the different butterflies on the ground.
I even got a grasshoper land on my pod (no kidding..)

Maybe I should stick to plain spanglish.

It looked like the hangies where killing it over at the RR.
Was it you also out there?

just a little friendly teasing. thanks for the report, and don't skimpy on the poetry ;)

I believe we need to unify...

Soaring pilots unite!

(reminds me of: Wonder Twins, Activate!)
