The north circuit is open

A really beautiful spring day here in the Sierra’s!

Everything you can imagine today…Mud, flowers, bugs, baby ducks, geese, cows and some big thunder clouds building. Its good to get the north circuit open again. Made a bunch of landings today at a number of spots in honor of the Valdez STOL contest that starts today. Thats about the only place I would rather be but… this will have to do. Some have asked why I am not there and really its simple but hard answer. My pops was diagnosed with Leukemia 8 weeks ago and we are now in a battle for his life. Its the sort of thing that you always hear about but never think it will happen to you or your family. Anyhow, enough of that. I am uploading this post and then off to spend the day with him. The following pictures will tell the tale for today. It was absolutely beautiful today!
