Wow, great write-ups and pics!

What a great Sunday! - Super stoked to have made it out and flown with you all! Vivid memories came to mind all week!

Notables: Jon got me to go, Cathleen lent me her fleece on launch, Ron helped me detangle my lines, lots of colorful gliders out marking lift, managed to tag Painted Cave on second attempt from VOR using SE thermal draws diagonal into the back, lots of strong lift, had nice stall flying back into strong thermal lee-side while heading back west from Romero road cut at layer cake area (nothing like swinging outward looking backwards watching those tips try to kiss - ahiee! ), found convergence spots from Inspiration Point to lower lower Parma and out over town with Max, tagged Brophey's, and Chris and Neil picked me up from the beach with perfect timing after retrieving from Carp!

One of those killer days!

The sky is calling.
