After yesterdays plastered to the stratosphere kind of afternoon, today was quite different.  Warm at skyport, blowing down on top, but much enthusiasm by several eagle first timers, so the excitement was high. light climbs when you could find them to 3300ish. touched 3600ish once somewhere.  super fun scratching down the front points with timmayyy!, scottayyyy, and cmckellar to the VOR. timmayyy and i were at 2300ish at the VOR spine for a while before finding one back to 3400.  light winds helped us make our way back to parma when the fly above all crew later got off at altenator, so we picked up magic mike at westbowl and dragged him to parma.  he looked like he was setting up for robins and had a great save. scottayy got stuck a few times but caught us back at thermal factory and he made it to romero at about 2000ish and flushed to an upscale montecito beach.  good times cruising around with longtime friends!!!


scottayyyy!
