our sniffer, would not even waste his time with a free tow.

Today looks much better.

Last night, Becky, Mike and the Newguard kids hosted a Seattle Glider
Council Foundation BBQ. Good food, great friends, cold keg.

Nelson Funston is up and walking and is our Contest Scorer. 2F (E.C.
Welch) is here for a few days and Klaus Auerbach was here yesterday;
he got to see 5K and meet the current owner.

Glad to see that Nelson is recovering. Would be fun to fly in another
Sports Class at Ephrata but have moved to Texas. L. Wyman
