The LIFT contest in Traverse City this weekend was really fun. The weather was
great especially
Sunday. A sincere thanks to Jim Johnson, Larry Storie and the rest of the LIFT
crew. Needless to
say there was a lot of competition in 2M and Unlimited, which left a hole open
for me to get my
first, first place trophy in RES. :-) Thanks Marc for selling me that AVA.
We also witnessed a battle between a Bald Eagle and a Hawk. Didn't know they
would do barrel rolls.
The eagle left the area to the east and came over closer to us. Later we
noticed the Eagle had a
couple of wing feathers missing. The hawk held his territory and continued to
thermal in a nice
lazy circle. Jim Johnson caught some lift with the eagle and they both skied
out.
Memorable...
