My wife along with a number of other wives seem to have fun. It would be great to see you again
I'm taking my wife on a 15-day anniversary trip in the -10 or the -9A. We have talked about going out West. Is LOE something she may enjoy? She's not really into planes, but this would be her first time at any aviation event without our 7 kids (or fewer when we had fewer).
The previous post on the apron status was not clear to me. If someone comes up Saturday for an hour or so, will there be asphalt/concrete ramp space?
I avoid taxiing on unprepared surfaces.
Snowing at 8500 feet here in pine.
Glad I made it home yesterday, looks like no VFR flying today in the Denver area. Snowing here in Littleton at the moment, only good thing is it's not sticking to anything, the ground is too warm. Tomorrow looks to be a good day though. Deb and I will be there sometime in the afternoon, plan to make a fall colors flight through the mountains in the morning, assuming reasonable mountain weather.
Regards,
Think positive Scotty...supposed to be a fast moving storm with improving weather from about noon on, I believe. I'm driving though, so no worries for me either way. Saturday should be nice....sunny and crisp. See you all out there.
Isn't Boulder some distance SSW of KFNL?
I am not seeing the TFR yet on the FAA site.
....
I would have loved to be at the LOE today, but still stuck in Michigan. How was the gathering? Did the weather hold up? I imaging it was a bit sobering as a result of the recent losses. I hope people had a good time and enjoyed the event.
