NetHeads,

This is getting addictive.  Three trips to the airport, four more hours on the 
clock, and 8 more landings.  An hour before sunset I flew down to Guntersville 
Airport, a cool little strip on the lake.  It was a nice little cross country 
so I could practice those skills, operating the GPS, leaning, and listening to 
that smooooooth engine hummmmmm along.  At the end I got a couple of "night" 
landings in, and positively greeeeeased 'em on in the smooth air.  Next weekend 
I'm going to land at Guntersville, and the 2300 foot grass strip at Moontown as 
well.  I was tempted today, but didn't do it.  I'm up to about 17 hours now. 

I talked to my father tonight, and he's sinking some tie downs for me at his 
3600 ft grass strip down in L.A. (Lower  Alabama).  That's a four hour 
frustrating drive turned into about a pleasurable 1.2 hour flight, and with 50% 
better fuel mileage than my VW gets!   I think I'm hooked on this already...
