A little up time

Thursday (3 March) was a frustrating afternoon of watching the wind blow a little too hard at Spring Hill, but on Friday, after some more watching and waiting, David was finally able to launch safely around 17h30 or so and had a very smooth and pleasurable flight.

Meanwhile, Jen's friends and former NorKam colleagues (before they retired), Al and Faith Bailey, had come to pay a visit.  They wanted to see some kangaroos, and their wish was granted!  We enjoyed seeing them and hearing about their adventures, and it was a pity they had to hit the road again in the morning.






But Lake George was very much on on that Saturday (5 March), and David had a wonderful 2.5-hour flight from Geary's, up to the Collector launch and beyond, and back, in fairly strong thermal conditions.  Sunday also was good, though it took him two tries to get a soaring flight in, and that was a late ridge-soaring event.
