2006-07-19 Thread Marc Gellart
George is right, it has been hot around IN/OH the last few days, but the start of the Soaring Nats looks great. Temps for Friday and the weekend are forecast in the low 80's and under 10 winds. After the last attempt at XC two years ago, this looks like paradise. Look forward to seeing
