In the hope of filling rooms at the aviation themed hotel, The Alexis Park
Inn, I hope that the storms are close enough so that people must evacuate
their houses and take up rooms in the aviation themed hotel called the
Alexis Park Inn.

If that would be a sharp-looking Cherokee 180, your partner is safely
ensconced in our honeymoon suite -- the Pan Am Clipper Suite -- for the
night.

He is NOT roughing it...

Thanks, Jerry.

We TRIED to fly to Pinckneyville today, for the rec.aviation cookout/party,
during a brief window of nice flying weather...

We got about 30 miles south when the weather fell apart, again. When we saw
the towering cumulus stretching wall-to-wall in the distance, we reluctantly
turned back.

Good thing, too -- we would NEVER have made it back tonight....

Weird weather. We've had a warm front draped over us for several days. One
minute it's hot and humid, the next minute it's cold and blustery. It has
switched back and forth half a dozen times, interspersed with heavy rains,
thunderstorms, and high winds...

Last week I had to leave my plane in phoenix (FFZ), I was checking the weather
and as the winds at my destination were getting higher, weathertap.com was
showing 25 gusting to 30 about 30 degrees off the runway, not to bad but I
needed current winds for a decision so I called the tower and was told they
just saw sustained winds at 41 mph which for me, was an automatic no-go, so I
had to leave my baby.

driving back to phoenix next sunday, Hope no one messes with her.

Hangers are for sale at Pegasus Air Park (right next to Queen Creek.)
$58K per if I remember correct. (Not a lease a real sale.)

Closer than FFZ, you'll never get a hanger at FFZ as the wait list is
over 10 years old.

My parents live in Queen Creek, right against the base of the San Tan
Mountains.

I sent you an email last night did you get it ok?

I glanced at Pegasus but there isnt any thing there, airnav says its a small dirt strip
with no services, I wont land my plane on dirt strips unless its an emergency, I have
this fear of it screwing up my landing gear somehow.

FFZ is farther away but its got allot of services, gateway airport I dont like very much
so decided not to go there.

Queen creek was my wifes idea, she has a couple of show horses and wanted horse property
for them.

That's a shame; you missed some great lasagna and a chance to fly John's

One of these years. The weather can't ALWAYS suck on that weekend, can it?

Although, in honesty, in the past it's been scheduling problems that kept us
away -- usually U of Iowa graduation.

Dan, did you take any pix? If so, send 'em to me, and I'll get 'em up on
the Rogue's Gallery!

Unless you'd rather destroy the evidence?

I was driving through northern Iowa Friday evening near Bradgate. I just
missed the tornado that wiped out that town by a few minutes. I saw the big
wall cloud to the west as I was driving south. I got to Humboldt just before
the storm sirens started there.

I went out to the Humboldt airport Saturday when the weather was good to
see if there was anyone around that I could bum a ride to get a chance to
see the damage from the air. No luck. I found out later that N91RA
(Citabria) was flying around the Rolfe and Bradgate area. If I had known he
was down there, I could have talked him into a ride.
