Day 13

Day 13
Thursday March 13th
I spent the afternoon watching the sun set and chatting up the local color high above Ventuckey at Grant's Park. I bumped into a group of local sloppers who provided quite a laugh. Sloppers are folks who fly radio controlled gliders. Some of these guys can get pretty serious about it all. Some even show up dressed in full battle gear, camo and all! Unfortunately there was a rather inconsistent wind so the flying turned into grab ass and beer drinking. Not that there is anything wrong with that!

The glidder, grounded.


Captain Kirk takes a break and waits for the wind.
