I got these cool pictures the night before.  I think they should be titled "Moon Madness by Moonlight"

Sweet pics Steve!

And, just so everyone knows bot of our HLGs flew really
well, but my Maxwell smoked 'em on Wednesday evening.
The guy that designed the plane was down below Circle 1
flying a discus launch glider and when we showed up he
was amazed that I had a Maxwell. I got a couple of really
good, long flights that evening. Big FUN!!

Later, Steve
