Larchwood Flyin

Had a really nice flight this last weekend at the Larchwood IA Fly-in. Since the winds were light, we tried to do a ribbon race, which was a lot of fun, but I broke my ribbon way too quickly.

New Appliances/Floor

I have been relatively quiet the last few weeks because I have been busy flying and remodeling. Below are a few pictures of my new floor and appliances.


Before


After



New Stove



New Fridge and Freezer.


New floor in entryway.


As I mentioned, I have been flying quite a bit as well. Below are a few pictures of various flights.




Devin, Duane and I.





We were scheduled to fly over Beresford for their 125 celebration, but it was too wet, so Devin tethered instead.

A sign of things to come...

Here is a picture of my new kitchen sink...


This is only the beginning though. The new floor is coming in a few short weeks, with new appliances and lighting to follow.

Also, stay tuned this weekend for the first balloon event of the year. 25 out of town pilots are flying with nearly 15 local pilots to create an exciting and fun packed weekend.

Big Sioux River Valley Flight

Below is a picture of a flight I recently had over the Big Sioux River Valley. The relatively fast winds kept me from doing a splash and dash...

New Basket!!



It has been forever since I last posted...I guess you could blame facebook for that one! I will be traveling quite a bit this summer for various balloon events across the Midwest. Check back for photos or better yet, hit me up on facebook.

Attached are some recent pictures of my latest addition: a new basket! It flies extremely well, has the feel of a solid floor up there, and has more fuel (and more power) than my previous basket. My system is now a hot rod in the sky!
