Latest happenings.

Our grandson got married last year and this Sept. he produced a baby boy. That ment we had to go see our new great grand son, in Ct. Another and probably last drive back there. All the other trips we took 3 days. This time we figured 4 days would be easier on us. And we spent 7 days there getting the visiting done. During that time a wheel speed sensor on the rear wheel crapped out lighting up the dash like a Christmas tree. No cruise control. We made it back on time and got the truck fixed and all is well there. Now I need to get ready for the local contest and there is a storm in the gulf that is going to mess up my planned flying time. I need to get a plane ready for the profile and N-30 events and one for the big event on Sunday. I have rejected the first choice for profile and N-30 and am going with the scratch built Carpet Bagger. Which is really a scratch built Mo'Best. I need to fly it to see how it performs in the changing atmosphere and temp. I changed engines in it a while back for the better. The air is getting cooler and the planes/engines react differently than in the heat. I also am starting to use another batch of fuel and that can change things also. Hopefully the storm wont ruin too much of my flying time as the contest is next weekend.
