Flying at Faro Field

I had a call from Steve yesterday while I was up on the roof that they were flying today at Faro Field.  We went up the Westside Hwy. to Vader and then took the Winlock Vader Rd to Winlock.  We took 603 out of Winlock and found out they are still working on the road straightening out some curves.  We were the only vehicle behind the Pilot Car and it took a while to get through the 1.6 miles.  We were stopped several times while equipment worked and the Pilot Car driver hung some signs.  Since we weren't in a rush it was kind of fun.
We were the first ones at the flying field and I got in three flights before anyone else showed up.
I had the GoPro taking pictures during the first flight, the motor home will not fit through the covered bridge so we had to come across the field and over a bridge that is at the right side of the picture.
Leonard was shooting touch and goes with his Vortex delta that look so good that I may have to see about getting myself one that is electric powered.  There were seven of us there today and we had a great time flying and visiting.  James came up after we got home so we could check on a small issue with his car.
