Morning all, just popped in to say I am still out here, flying, fluttering, stalling, flying and always appreciative of you lovely ladies and all your encouragement and the sense of cameraderie that collective flying gives instead of wallowing alone. When I don't feel like cleaning the loo (again) I think of LameWolf dusting her dragons, Toots writing her list, Pigpen flinging mules, miss-matching pegs on windy lines, star-drops,bi-carb and vinegar being sloshed all over the country and I feel much more businesslike.
Thank you all, so much.
