FLYING!

We headed to the field about nine this morning.  It never did get up to the 51 degrees that was forecast, but we still had sixteen flyers out there.  I took a bunch of video, the sighting system worked good and several people were interested in it.  By about three the cold had gotten to just about everyone including me, so we headed home.
As we were coming down Barnes Drive, I spotted a herd of about two dozen elk in the trees.  We stopped down the road a ways, turned around, got the Nikon with the 42X lens out and headed back.  This is the best picture that I got, shooting through the trees it was tough to get a good focus.  We stopped at BK for dinner, I unloaded the motor home, put it away and called it a day.
