Anyone want to go flyin, OK wind

Looking out the front window and seeing our bird feeders being held almost vertical by the wind thinking might be a good day for practicing  ;D

I guess everyone is going to reevaluate their predictions for the annual St. Cloud Car Sink.

Hey Bob, the wind is only "possed" to be 10 to 15 tomorrow.  Looks like a good day to fly.  By the way, Sunday was almost to calm to fly.  Kept hitting old air in the loops and even got a double on the horizontal 8s.  Flag very seldom would give a clue to where the wind may be comming from.  Missed ya, but I know,,,,it was only 45 degrees. S?P

He's got room on his property for two more circles as well...sweet set up and I haven't been out there nearly enough!
You should see the little golf cart plane toter he has to carry his stunters from the shop to the front.
