Hi Linda:
Congratulations Linda, you must be very proud. This is an accomplishment
that the average person can't enjoy. Now maybe you will be flying over to
the things that are going on from time to time in the Sacramento valley
area.
Maybe something we could do is to arrange a get together at Lampson by
Clear Lake. That is if the restaurant on the field is in operation. The next
thing of any size will be the Golden West flyin at Marysville in late June.
Again congratulations: Maynard Smith, 99843, Colfax (530) 637-5115
