any members having lingering thoughts of our old site should visit there today.  totally flooded as it usually is during the fall although perhaps a tad earlier than usual.

our new site on the other hand is high and dry, slightly wet underfoot and the road is dry and passable one day after that heavy rain.

there was considerable water coming down the lynch road extension during the rain however and some silt has been washed away in a few spoots, leaving gravel, but still easily driven over.  AND that silt has totally filled the depression (puddle) about halfway up so no more water sitting there.

the road around the end of the field was a bit wet this morning and taking that turn at speed could result in an unscheduled visit into the edge of the ravine.   ;D  should be dryer wednesday.

I have to say that I have very much enjoyed flying at our new field this summer and don't miss the old one at all, flooding or not. However being on high ground is certainly an advantage :-)

I don't miss the old field at all. I missed over 2 months of flying last year do to the water conditions. But I must say, thanks to all involved to putting the new field together his year I have made up some time. ;D ;D ;D ;D
Remember keep it skids up!!!!!!!!

I don't miss the old field, perfect if you have a boat....also my lost plane would be under water for a while.....

Like i said before this is the best thing that has ever happened to the club in quight a while....... Except for the bad place! Lol. Glad that i had a hand in setting things up, and the recent camping adventures were awesome........ Especially without the newf. Lol

Add some buildings to the old site and it would look like Lago de Truro last night…

I figured the old field would have been a lake today after all the rain we had.  Don't miss it at all.  Especially glad we don't have to haul up and move everything. :)
