Larry I hate that your not going to make it. I guess we'll have to drink your share of the beer.

Bad Lands FUN!

The count was 63 airplanes. If you did not fly in ,, Good That was about the right amount.
We had some good times, one couple took the curtsey car and kept it all day, rude! The faces change but we keep seeing some of the same ones. It is nice to meet new friends and renew old ones. This was the 4th Badlands Fly In.
Larry has done a good job of intertaining all of us. Hope he wants to have us again, next year!
Thanks to Larry and Cathy

PS: We flew home T67 Hicks, non stop in 4hr 17 minutes.
