What an amazing 24 hours I have had.
Arrived into Ontario, CA at lunchtime yesterday, picked up by my good friend Barry who drove me to Chino. Lunch at Flo's, then flew a PA-18 to Flabob, where I met the most wonderful people at EAA Chapter 1, and the work they are doing with the Young Eagles and beyond. Flew back to Chino, and out for mexican dinner and margaritas, telling lies and swapping tales. This morning, breakfast at Flo's, then a 40 minute tail chase between two Harmon Rockets in the back hills at Chino with Barry's good friend Jerry. These two are the nicest guys you'll meet anywhere, and WOW. The Rocket is INCREDIBLE and an absolute delight to fly. It just went where I pointed it, and it made me feel like a halfway decent pilot. Left Chino this morning with much regret to come down to San Diego - back to work and back to earth.
But this grin isn't going to come off my face any time soon.
