Thanks for the welcome.We have been around Lexington a few times with our friends Wayne and Janet VanAllen but never had the weather to fly down there. Maybe next time!
Canada was the best. I loved it there. Beautiful flying-beautiful people. Met some new friends there and I can't wait to go back. You will have to hitch a ride next year.
I am fired up again. I would really like to finish up 2008 with my license. We shall see.
