20 Days before the Start

What a beautiful morning here in Northern Colorado!  The sun is shining and the wind is light...  A great day for flying.

Preparations continue and will soon rev up into the full force of frenzied activity.  Coming up this weekend
- more route planning!

I intended this photo to be rotated 180 degrees.  Oh well.  I can turn a plane 180 degrees but not this file.  I am a novice with blogger, always learning.

The photo shows all of the sectional charts for the race route.  Seattle, Klamath Falls!!!  We are flying west of the Rockies.  This will be frontier territory for us.
