Default 5 ship over Pagosa Springs

Flew from 88R up to KPSO for a few days to help my sister and brother-in-law to move in, and take a friend back home to Austin.

When playing Frisbee golf Monday afternoon (7/2/18), a nice 5 ship formation made a few passes over the area. I heard them take off from KPSO, and soon a 3 ship followed by a 2 ship came into view. Making a left turn for the join-up, they flew back to the north west and disappeared from view. Apparently the join-up went well, they came back over town as a 5 ship. Smoke on over town! A few more passes and then a break as the two flights went their separate ways. Good practice show everyone!
Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of the fly over.

Here's a bad iphone photo from the flight up...


Included in the shot if you know just where to look: The Frisbee golf course, my sister's new home in Colorado, the spot on the river where we sit in the shade in the afternoon, and of course, the hot springs.

KPSO is a fairly easy trip up and back from central Texas, 4.5 hrs or so, with a refuel at KLLN. I hope to make the trip more often.
