Default 37 hours in 28 days.

My wife and I wanted to go to the Cable airshow last weekend so I called Rosie and planed on flying there with him. The weather was bad so we decided to go somewhere and have breakfast. Soon after we decided to go Mercedes called on company freq and said she would join us. We had a great time. After I got home, I added up my hours in the new plane. In 28 days I have flown 37 hours. Out of those days about a week was raining and snowing. Crazy, I better get back to building. Some pictures of this past weekend attached.

Default Is that Saddleback in the distance of photo #6?

Is that Saddleback poking through the clouds in the distance of photo #6? Sigh... I'm sure it is. The high here in NW Arkansas is supposed to be in the twenties F today and KBVA is playing "California Dreamin'" - not by the Mamas and Papas but a pretty good version. Ah well, I have a hangar and it will be Spring soon.

Bob I am not sure. First time I have ever flown in that area.
