I got home yesterday from the rock house,,, the first 2 legs were smooth and easy flying I had to try different altitudes to find the best winds.... the last leg was a bit windy& bumpy and later in the day, the time the thermal bumps come out for a visit to add to the wind,, but it still was the best weather window until some time next week. I met some old friends, and made some new ones. thanks Larry for the gathering.

I got back from the Rock House last night. What a great fly-in. Larry and Karen were great hosts, keeping us all fed and comfortable. I enjoyed putting faces on some names from the list, making new friends and reconnecting with old friends. The flying was great as well. Here are a couple of shots from the trip:

Where is this Rock House?
I've recently joined the Kolb mail list so I don't know where this Rock House is. It looks like a nice place to fly into.

Bran N/Kolbers:
The Rock House is located about 7 miles south of Burns Junction, Oregon. In the SE corner of the State, high desert, 4,000 MSL. It is the home of Larry C.
I am loading my MKIII, getting ready to fly east this morning through:
Buhl, ID
Preston, ID
Kemmerer, WY
Rock Springs, WY
Laramie, WY
Goodland, KS
Great Bend, KS
Neosho, MO
Searcy, AR
Tunica, MS
Columbus, MS
Titus, AL
With a little luck I can make it in 3 each 8 hour flight days. More realistically, will probably take 4 each 6 hour flight days. A few years ago I could make the 8 hour days easily, but at 73 years old, ain't got as much spunk as I used to have.
Got about 1,900 sm to fly in 24 flight hours.
Not ready to come home, but it is time. My chores are waiting on me.
Will try to keep you all posted on my progress as computers and time are available.

My dictionary has "John Hauck" as the definition of spunk! You are truly inspiring!

Thanks, Chris/Kolbers.
Looks like I have my work cut out for me today. Winds are forecast for "breezy conditions out of the south from here in Laramie, WY, to Neosho, MO. I would like to make Neosho, but the winds will be the determining factor if I do or not. I have a good place to stay in the FBO at Goodland, KS, if the wind proves to strong to be comfortable and/or economical.
