Jim,

You are not very far away at all...still hoping some day I can see your plane & projects in person - I do follow your posts as we go along and I always learn from my friends. My first Kitfox ride was due to the generosity of a builder/pilot at KANE who had a really nice IV he had constructed in a single car garage. I think that ride spoiled me and I had to have a Kitfox.


Steve,

Thanks for your kind comments. Yup....you figured it right...some Hawaiian print reflected in the window...My wife has that going on. We're pretty much like a pair of gypsies.....and we tend to gather things from our trips - so you figured correctly if you thought we were to the big island. Last fall's road trip included Utah and its beautiful canyon country + crawling around at Mesa Verde (and the pine nuts were ripe!)
