The weather briefing called for 5 kts to 6,000 ft. A TAT was called with a 3
hour window. Turn points were Nisbet and then Bedfort with 25 mile radius
around both. Alot of landouts. Weather didn't pan out. Most cruising done below
4,000 msl. Some streeting. Only 2 got around. SM and P7. A high layer came in
over the area mid day and caused alot of the problems. All ships are home
safe, some getting aero tow retrieves, others trailers. The tie down area is
getting full. Tomorrow we are looking at another practice day. Tomorrow night
will be the pilots meeting and dinner. The yankees are staying above the yellow
taxiway line, no water pistols were fired today. Soar high, fly safe, thermal
tight. # 711 reporting.

I think today the "booby prize" goes out to our new "weatherman" he was a
little off today. So far it looks like the score is Yankees 2, GRITS
EATERS.....ZERO!!!

Top that one 711!!!!

So...... how do the Canucks (GJ, K1, ET, etc) fit into this "war
between the states"?

Do they have Sailplanes in Canada? I am sure that they would have to
have a beer holder built into them.

The aforementioned Kannucks can hold there own. If GJ can't handle his end,
