Thanks for the note. The EAA Saturday morning breakfasts are one of the things that I miss the most! That was as wonderful bunch of folks, You and Edie included. It was good to see that you had “bequeathed” the leadership to someone else so you could get some work done on your two planes.
We are not travelling much these days largely due to my condiition but we have a very nice guest room here and we can reserve it anytime you want to come out and see what God’s country really looks like.
