lots of casual stupid fun going on at this event. Even though it was small, it might be the best event I attended this year. Lot's of really close buds and just a great crowd of folks. It is a bit late and I am trying to catch up on RCG posts at the moment, but posted a rundown in the ATTF thread. I think CK is hooked for life now. Ultra relaxing event with great folks dodging natural disasters (Earthquakes and Hurricanes). Just a bit of wind and shaking ground.

Thanks to everyone there and all those that made it happen. Too many to mention tonight, but have to put out a special thanks to Tony for working so hard in the Kitchen to feed us all some great grub. And CK for making the long journey and also spending way too much time in the kitchen. Can we go back and do it again now... Sad it is over, but wow, great time!


Diggs

OH, and many pics from Larry should be arriving here soon!

Next year I think I'll take another day off so we can stay for Sunday.

Diggs - thanks for helping me sidestep Tim's feeble attempt to keep me from the peppers.
Larry - thanks for being on the bottom.
Tony - where's the Cub?
CK - I nominate you for Best in Show for both speed and cooking.
Blake - I completely resisted the urge to monopolize your time with my 500 - next year you might not be so lucky.
Kevin - thanks for letting me solo on the tricopter. Sorry I wasn't there on Sunday to help with the radio programming. I hope someone was able to help you.
Ric - sorry about the plate of food. It's always nice to make a good first impression.

Thanks to the guys that helped me with the Mustang - first ever grass strip landing that didn't result in a nose-over.

I know I'm leaving out a bunch of people. For that I am very sorry. I should have kept a journal. Let me just say that both Gloria & I had a blast, and we'll be back next year.

And can someone please get PJ a TomTom app for his phone?

Grampa Tony

Ok, thats it. Next year I'm going. Don't know how but I will find a way.

Thanks to everyone who came in for the event! Special thanks go out to CK for putting in some serious efforts at the Heli Deli on Friday night. He probably still smells like smoke The steaks were fabulous! I also have to thank CK for giving up his RiteWing. Made my day to see Nat flying it by himself t'day. I had a great time watching all of you fly. can't wait to see you all next time.

We survived the storm, jars and long fun night to start all over again on Friday.

And the final day of pics. Larry had to leave early on Sunday, so no Sunday coverage. Shame, Sunday was a great sunny day with lots of LMR action. Here we go with the last batch.

Thanks Larry for some awesome photos, and glad you spent some time flying on Saturday and not behind the lens the entire day!

Diggs

Thanks for the pics, Larry & Diggs!

It was a great weekend, even with the wind. Loads of flying, as well as the opportunity to socialize with great friends, old and new. Thanks to everyone who came and hung out with us; we hop it won't be your last trip to RAMS!

Who owns the yellow/red/green/blue plane? I think it is a night flyer. If it is the same one that I saw at SEFF this year. I don't think I ever asked.
