For Capt. Mike:
My picture of the moonlight, sunlight and firelight is a slide taken in about 1985...never scanned for transmission here. But we had a full moon
Tuesday and it would have worked then...only we didn't have a beach fire.
Yep...you're right. Our bird is a Beach V35A. We have owned it for 24 years and I have almost 2500 hours in its left seat.....she knows where I
wanna go even if I don't.

sweet - what would you do if you, once having tasted it, had to quit flying to your special place in paradise??
i think i'd have to open a vein, or at least a large bottle of cactus juice.
see you on one of the next low tides.

For Capt, Mike and other wing nuts:
That would be hard. But our son, Chris, has taken to flying the Bonanza quite a bit. His wife of three years thought that all small plane flying was
like a ride she had in his Aeronca Champ were the door flew open...didn't understand that you don't need a door to fly and that it's better without
one below about 120 kts.
I also just put a new engine (better than factory new) into it along with the 406 MHZ ELT we gotta have, new tinted window doublers in back, a new
engine and fuel management system and like that. The engine has GAMIs and fine wire plugs and the crank was balance to half a gram so flight is
smooooooth and sweeet and very fast. Only problema is $5.35 per gallon for gasolina in the USA and almost that down here.
But you gotta fly to live.
....and, despite all of that, we have been driving most of the time lately because we are retired and don't need fast trips, I don't wanna park The
Bird outside for three weeks and The Boss has been requiring loads of house stuff that won't fit in any airplane smaller than a C-130.

Hi BW!

We will need to link up soon for some good times on the bay.
Hope your trip goes well!

The wind has been about 10 knots out of the east all day and now it's dead calm. The forecast is for light winds and good WX until about Monday when
we're supposed to get wind again.
There is only one bird here...a Bonanza that flew in tonight. The parking at the cantina on the burm above the high tide line is currently full of
motor homes and cars/trucks from the Easter crowd. But we are gonna have low tides for the next week or so...you can park by the old gas dock which is
under water at high tide.
It was very cool today...71F...but supposed to be warming up until next week.

We are back in SD but you can get the current and local WX at Gonzaga Bay here: http://www.wunderground.com/webcams/lightner/1/show.html It's a webcam at Paper Fernandez across the bay....shows the wind speed and direction in
the shot.
