The Rains are still Here
Well, the trailer parking area is almost under water this morning. The county water truck that keeps the dust down on the main road got stuck trying to get out of its parking spot. The truck that brought the driver almost got stuck. There is a picture that Mark showed at the pilots meeting that highlights the number of miles to make minimum distance and the number of miles that takes for a 1,000-point day. After Fernando’s weather brief, it was obvious that we would not get a task in, so the day was cancelled. We did get to watch the Sun Ship Game in the auditorium on the big screen and Andy Blackburn went out to OX Ranch to drive a tank. I am waiting for the pictures.
Tomorrow is anybody’s guess. If it does not rain, and if the trailer parking area can dry out a little, we may get to fly. I will say Victoria, our cruise ship director, did a magnificent job on highlighting all the things you can do in and around Uvalde. She has lived here all her life and knows everyone.
Guess I will talk to you tomorrow. Until then, stay high, go fast and come home.
Cheers,
Rich
