Pietenpol-List: Gone Flying

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: stephen
Sunny days are starting to become more common! After a particularly gloomy Monday, I woke up early to get a head start on the day. The weather in Provo and SLC was supposed to turn ugly in the afternoon, and indeed before I went home there was a heavy, but short lived snow storm. At 6:30am however it was calm. The clouds that would later pound us in the day were dramatic against a bright sunrise over the dark mountains. I flew from 7 to 8 am knowing that I was going to be late for work. Oh well... I did 7 touch and goes and a short trip along the south edge of Utah Lake. Base leg to rw 30 is right over I-15. It was crowded with commuters on their way to work. The pattern was empty except for one little green Air Camper. After tying down I went home for a breakfast of green pancakes with the wife and kids, put on my st. patties day tie and hit the office before 9am. This could become a habit!Stevee________________________________________________________________________________

Stevee,I'm ready for spring in Pa too. Did get the Piet up 2 weeks ago. I'vebeen flying to work when the weather suits. It takes about 10min longerby the time I walk from the airport to work, but it sure is a lot morefun. Going home is north and the cars on the highway will pass me ifthere is any head wind at all.Craig________________________________________________________________________________
