It was going to be another day with a lot of clouds around, some rain showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon but I had decided to go out to Willie’s cabin and  I grabbed a few things  from the store.  The  cooking oil is for frying fish and  the potatoes are for hash browns in…

After a great night’s sleep I made myself a hearty breakfast and began straightening and packing up. I did some extra clean up on the cabin and left some supplies there for Willie. It is amazing how long it takes me to get things packed up and in the plane. When I finally got going,…

I had a great night’s sleep and woke up to a gorgeous morning. The shower in that bath house was much colder than I expected but I managed to get through it. I then went up and add a another fabulous gourmet meal with Kim’s cooking. When I was leaving I went over to say…

We had a leisurely morning at the Air B&B place, it was kind of a one bedroom completely separate guest house.  We never even spoke to the hosts the whole time we were there. We went out flying around the area but there were a number of low cloud layers and even though it would…
