Based on a weekend success previous year I decided to fly to Sun-n-Fun again. A plan was expeditiously made and I launched on late Friday afternoon southbound. I am Day VFR only and based on moderate headwind I calculated by twilight I could reach North Carolina.
Not much traffic. A medevac on a mission. He fishfinds me I see him everybody happy.

There are several motels within walking distance in Lumberton. I got to the closest. Can't beat a rate of $39.99.
Tomorrow will be a day of fun.
