Hey -- going off the "Fruit Diet" for 8 days in OSH I gained FIVE
pounds!

So how was the flight home? Did the weather cooperate? Did you hook
up with a co-pilot? (Ahem, so to speak...)

I *lost* 5 pounds. As for company, yup. United crew joined me. Based
in Denver, so it worked out well. Got home Tuesday just before lunch.

Never again. You midwesterners may call what was there vis 10 and
ceiling 12K, but for us westerners, no way! If I can't see
Pikes Peak from my front yard (it's 60 sm away), then I don't fly
in that direction!

I'm spoiled.

5 miles vis in the Midwest in the summer is 2 1/2 miles to the left and 2
1/2 miles to the right. Depending on where the sun is sometimes you can see
what is up ahead.
