John hit the nail on the head; keep on flying, and keep on building! Days like today are truly what flying is all about, and created some good memories for the two of us!
Me and John met up in Ocean Shores WA, a very nice little airport (minus fuel) right along the Pacific Coast, about 100 NM from each of us. My flight consisted of departing Anacortes (74S) southbound, and snuggled up to the Olympic Mountains as much as I could without flying directly over them. Once past the mountains, I turned South West directly toward Ocean Shores, where I was greeted with a spectacular view of the Pacific Coast the closer I got. Upon arriving there and greeting one another, we walked into the small beach town for some lunch, where I enjoyed one of the best burrito’s I’ve ever had, at a small place called “Fat Marty’s – Tacos you can’t say no to”. Well I didn’t try any of their tacos, but I will certainly never say no to their burritos in the future. Afterwards we walked back to the airport, took off towards KHQM as....more or less a “flight of two”, with myself flying a loose cruise off of John until we landed at KHQM. I never knew formation flying could be so thrilling in these little airplanes, until I was joined up about a quarter mile in trail of N133RM, following him almost all the way until touchdown. After refueling, we took off again from KHQM, flew some more formation, then split apart and headed back towards our home airports. Both of our RTB flights were uneventful. Days like today also remind me how grateful I am to get to be a member of this community!
