Keep up the good work Jana.
You are another example of someone related to a school, but doing an overwhelming amount of good for the site.
Maybe it was one of those “bullet thermals“.
Suggestion: Paint/tape over the next one in a sky-camouflaged blue color, so it does not stand out so much as a target.
Today, sold… Ozone pop-up speedbar (1 remains available), tow bridle set, UV tarp for wing/harness, flight deck.

Congratulations to all newly elected board members ! Nice to see continuity.
Kathy is great fit for events, welcome back.
In an Email sent today to members, we have an updated list of nominations…

As much as I appreciate the vote of confidence to those who nominated me, I leave the position(s) to others running for office. Good flights, Jerome
The gophers were listening during the recent Blaster Training and are building stronger bunkers.
Very impressive Len ! This will go a long way towards securing and embellishing the LZ area.

Seeds are in the ground, and rain is on the way.
Seems like it was NOT resolved…

The more one follows the work and efforts of the board, the more one appreciates them.
Also check the SPAM folder in your favorite Email app. Things can get automatically redirected there and bypass your INBOX.
Thank you for holding these meetings over Zoom (or any online method).
It greatly helps those who would have a long commute, especially on a non-flyable day.
The area immediately to the West of Billboard had unusually good lift late in the day. My theory is that the light SE wind was butting against thermal convection on the sunlit West mountain face.
Fun to see a good group able to sneak away during the week.
Using Tim as an example (and distraction), who wrote: “I was pretty spectacularly angry.”
When we are verbally aggressive and/or threatening:
- It often follows being afraid, and we feel justified…
That person “cut me off” (on the road or in the sky), now I need to “teach him a lesson”.
He insulted/threatened my wife, now he will have to deal with me. Will Smith moment. - We can be reported for harassment to USHPA. Hint: They don’t like it.
- We think “I showed him”, while in fact we turned off the receiver’s listening mode, but succeeded in leaving a lasting impression that we are cuckoo.
It feels unfair, but for all the great things we do, our worst moment can be our downfall.
