Another great day of flying on Wednesday!

Yesterday I mentioned the sun coming through the fog, here is the picture I took.

Wednesday: I checked the Toledo Airport webcams first thing this morning and it was foggy. I kept checking back and it started clearing a little after 9 AM. I was almost all loaded except for filling the water tank. Once that was done I headed out. By the time I got there it was perfect flying weather. I got in one flight before Leonard and Audrey showed up.

Shortly after they arrived a pair of Army helicopters started flying around the area. This one has a missile on the right and a rocket launcher on the left. I hope you can see it, the person in the left seat is looking through binoculars or something.

The mountains were looking nice and bright with their new snow.

This is what I flew today! I also got the Eurofighter out after everyone left and put two flights on it for a total of 11 flights today. I had the red and green motor glider up for 35 minutes with only a 6 minute motor run by getting some good thermals. I was having such a good time I didn't even eat lunch. I stopped by and visited the lady we rent the field from for a few minutes on the way home. She is in her early 90's and doing pretty well. After putting the motor home away and eating lunch, I was ready to do this.
Hope you got to enjoy this nice day.
