Arty and Randy in Idaho – in the home stretch

Carol — Wed, 13 May 2009 00:53:58 +0000

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

Carol — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 15:55:53 +0000

Check 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.

I can hardly wait to hear from Arty and Randy about their flight on to Dauphin Island and Gulf Shores today! Pictures? Can hardly wait until tomorrow morning… Their flight is certainly a trip of a lifetime.

Big T and big wind

Carol — Sun, 12 Apr 2009 04:23:55 +0000

Read 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

Carol — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 19:29:29 +0000

I 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 [...]

Arty and Randy are in “Bit T” country

Carol — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 17:16:04 +0000

The 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

Carol — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 19:07:46 +0000

I 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.
