I hope every one has a SAFE and FUN Holiday. We planned to take the MotorShed on a trip to the shore. But it's raining and looks like it will be for hours.
Still going to have a good day with Sandy and some of the kids. I hope all of you who celebrate the 4th have a great day as well.
No blowing off fingers with M-80's

I hope everyone that has a holiday today eats lots of bbq for me! My work decided it was easier to schedule us to work today, and give us Friday off instead! Talk about taking away your (the nation's) birthday! All the fireworks/parades/BBQ's are taking place today.

My guys were up to there usual, firing bottle rockets and roman candles at each other arround the neighborhood. The little guy is branching out, he lost a bet about something and had to fire a bottle rocket out of his asterix ,"damn I was hollering and yelling 'it burns' ... there were sparks flying all over my ******" These guys a just a tad nuts!
Enjoy the day y'all!

I took Ashli and all my girls to the town square to meet my inlaws and watch the local parade like we do every year,... though its been hot, the weather today was not so bad today.

We had a good time, and afterward all came home and took a nap :smilegrin:

Planning to go watch the fireworks tonight, but it looks like it may storm :no:

no wait, yeah, it's raining, bummer.

To everyone that has served along with each and every one of you that support the Military I thank you. For today I climbed a mountain in your honor thanking you for this freedom to live life with a throttle wide open.

Happy winds and clear skies to all.

I had a blast at my little event. 7 different people flew kites while I was out there. Got one new flier and had some spectators interested in learning too. I only had 3 OBEs and one small injury, road/grass rash, Had a blast and did a couple of tandem rides. By the way thank you Brian Holgate for that awesome P.L. Vapor 3.2 great wind range can buggy as low as 8-9mph and as high as about 20mph and can tandem well too. Great speed too.

P.S.

I know the 3.2 has a much bigger wind range but on a field only a couple hundred yards long and my skill this is about as fast as I want to put it up in.
