Ray gets in early to load the van
Peachy takes his time to get some Rays
The guys get ready to fly at El Bosque
Steve M starts a perfect forward launch
Classic shot as Steve takes offHaving made the decision that the day may well blow out early we headed to El Bosque to hopefully miss the worst of it. On Arrival there was little breeze and it was well north so a cuppa coffee in the bar where we were joined by some other groups.
The sight of gliders starting to fly pulled us away from the never ending crossword and up the hill. Bill, Steve, Tony and Graham K were quickly off the hill as others began to arrive. Michelle waited for more breeze (he must practice his forward launches) and Ray waited for Michelle as a que developed.. Then shock horror we saw some dampness on the way! Next thing we were at cloudbase and with the others landing we called it a day and headed down. In hope we hung on for a couple of hours and had a guided tour of the local Bullring courtesy of Raymond who talked his way in before heading back to Algo where it was as black as your hat just as Gunny had advised us.
Evening meal out we dragged Gunny along and had a fine time before retiring in anticipation of an early start to get some flying in before heading to the airport.
