Again - another great weekend with friends and family. Elaine and I had a blast at the gathering. It took us 5 hours to fly up due to strong headwinds and a fuel stop. Left today about 130 pm local time after trying to help Mark Jones out - bad plug due to mixture settings - heard he had to land in Metropolis - all okay though. You Ellison guys - check to see if any alcohol in fuel or auto gas is affecting the rubber diaphram ---possible cause of mixture changing. Hope you figure it out. Jones - call me if I can help. Like I said, we left about 130pm and landed back home at 6pm local - 3hours and 30 minutes flight. Averaged about 180mph - that was nice! Hope you builders were inspired and those about finished got a ride and some pointers. See you next year with a new plane hopefully! Bill and N41768
