A great day of flying!

When we got to the field it was really foggy, we couldn't see the trees in the background of this picture which was taken a little after noon.  I was dressed for the cold and I got in quite a few flights before it started to warm up.  The propane heater felt really good when I was working around the bench.
By 2:00 it was sunny and warm, just about everyone had their coats off and we were having a great time flying.  I counted seven other flyers and a couple of spectators.
I flew until the sun went down, as I was packing up one of the other flyers mentioned the sun hitting Mt Rainier as it set.  I grabbed the camera and got this picture.
A little later I thought the sunset looked nice so I walked over to the fence line to get a clear shot of it.  On the way back I took this picture of the motor home and Mt St Helens.
As I got into the motor home the final time the sunset had gotten much prettier so I pulled over by the fence and took a couple more pictures.  They turned out much better than the first set.  We putted along Jackson Hwy. and Barnes Drive at 35 or 40 mph all the way home, it was a nice relaxing drive.
