Off to Goble

I loaded up the Blazer last night for a trip to Goble for the Cowlitz Valley Radio Control Flyers meeting today.  This is Gary's Fokker Dr. 1 triplane, it looks very real in this picture.  It was blowing like crazy down there today, but I had taken 4 planes that handle the wind so I had a good time.  I got in a few flights before the meeting at noon and made a few more after the meeting so I used up most of the batteries I took.
 Vera is watching and visiting with our friend Dave as he flies.
When I was done flying, we went to St Helens for pizza at a friend's son's pizza parlor.  I don't think we had ever been down in this part of St Helens before, there are some nice old buildings there.  The pizza was good, and the sauce was excellent.  By the time we were done there it was getting pretty warm and we headed for home.  I unloaded the Blazer, had a rhubarb snack and promptly took a nap while watching the NHRA drags in Seattle on TV.
