If you haven’t done so already, visit Arty’s blog. The entries she posted on May 10 and 12 are peppered with pictures. The adventurers are close to home, but rain is forecast in the Sandy, OR area through Thursday. Rain is an obstacle to a Drifter pilot!

Arty and gang in Florida
Saturday, April 18th, 2009Check out Arty’s latest posts! WOW! I skipped a few days and, as a result, I spent the better part of a half hour catching up on her journal of flight adventures, restaurant reviews and photo gallery. The squadron is in Florida now; getting closer every day to Lakeland and Sun ‘n Fun.

Big T and big wind
Saturday, April 11th, 2009Read Arty’s latest posts and check out her latest Spot. As big as Texas is, I suspect it seems a lot bigger when you’re flying into a turbulent headwind.

Still in Van Horn, TX
Thursday, April 9th, 2009I just finished reading Arty’s April 8 and 9 posts. Apparently, Randy is waiting for a new engine to arrive, so both planes are still parked near Van Horn, TX. Arty’s April 8 post has some awesome photos of the “wild West” and those of you who don’t know much about Arty, will probably find her short ramble about her life in today’s post interesting.

Arty and Randy are in “Bit T” country
Wednesday, April 8th, 2009The current marker on Arty’s Spot is located near Van Horn, TX, close to Interstate 10 and U.S. Route 90. It’s been a thrill watching Arty and Randy’s Spot markers trace their routes across the U.S.

Late arrivals
Tuesday, April 7th, 2009I just checked Arty’s blog again and found two posts dated 6 April. Either I missed them this morning – pre-coffee ground fog effect – or the stiff headwind she and Randy have experienced slowed its arrival.
For that matter, we’re having pretty strong winds in Maryland, too.
