Cool. Thanks for the reply! That's a lot of aircraft.

My wife and I flew 2.2 hours yesterday and, during that time I saw one
airliner up in the 30s and got one PCAS alert at 5 miles. Never saw
him. I love flying in the desert! Oh, yeah... We were the only glider up.

Today's flight was in wind from SE then NW then SW then SE then NW then SW then S then SW then SE then SW then NW. When approaching convergence lines the wind change was indicated on the Air-Glide S before the airmasses converged, by showing velocity reduction then change of direction then - on both mentioned varios - up indication.

How much head down time did that take? Were there other aircraft nearby?

Well mum, there was no more heads down than checking airspeed, etc. The Air is next to the ASI in the top row of the panel.
Some of that wind direction crap was remembered from post-flight analysis.
As for the train spotting bit:
Saw Cezzna, MD80, 727, bizjet, condor, hawk, raven, vulture, various F-things.
Didn't steal any thermals from any of the inorganic ones.
