An All Around Great Day!
Today's weather in Moriarty wasn't much for long flights but my day headed
in a different direction anyway. Today I completed my checkout in my new (to me) Pipistrel Sinus 912, a 15 meter touring motorglider, registered Experimental, Exhibition and Racing. After getting my logbook endorsed, I made another 3 takeoffs and landings solo before my wife arrived. As we were heading out to the plane, we stopped by the gas pump to look at the low wing motorglider sitting at the pump. What to my surprise but to meet Eric G. on his way to Washington from Florida! We had lunch together and then each took off and went our separate ways. A good day... I got 3 hours and 12 landings. Tomorrow, I'm taking my wife up again early in the morning and then I have a full schedule of towing. My LAK will be sleeping until Friday.

Thank you for the happy post. You are probably in the vanguard of what most soaring will be in 25 years. Safe Soaring!

An enviable dilemma. Too many airplanes and too little time. Congrats!
Perhaps your wife will move on to the LAK and claim some NM records.
