Flying!

We walked before going flying, the cherry trees along Front Street in Castle Rock are in full bloom, so I remembered to take a camera today.  It only took a few minutes to load up for the trip to the flying field.  The first half of the day was great, then about 1:00 the wind came up and some clouds rolled in.
Galen had his Waco out again today, it looks pretty real climbing out after take off.
He had the cowl off to do some adjusting, so more of the intricate details of the engine can be seen.  About Five, we loaded up and headed towards home.  We stopped in Toledo for some salad and chips to go with our sandwiches.  Then we stopped at the South Lewis County Park to eat, watch the ducks and fishermen.  We had a nice relaxing drive home via Barnes Drive and settled in for the night.
