Looks sweet. I think today would have been a good sloping day, but I spent it in a semi-vegetative state on the couch, in a food coma.

Hey Helinut, post the video from the AMA sailplane competition of the guy getting a 10+ minute flight from a hand toss!

My sister cooked one of those pre-seasoned rack of pork from Costco yesterday. It was one of the best dinners ive ever had

Btw- thinly sliced red onion & craisins are the secret ingredients to a tasty salad

Another speed record set out at Weldon a couple days ago. Didn't get it on radar but it sounded like a 500mph pass around the 1:40 mark.
