[GRIFFIN]

What time Friday?

Not sure. Hope to take day off work and set up early. Have a tent to set up at Wildman's also.

 

[Onebadhawk]

I ran into a small snafu here so I won't be out
there quite as early as I had hoped
but I should still be there plenty early enough
to help you guys set things up....

Increase the time under "Show last" and click on "Show all" next to that.
There is a weather station in the northeast corner in the town of Walnut that has current weather readings one can peruse. Move the map up to show Princeton and there is a weather station on the very most south side of town. May give an idea of local conditions at the launch site.

-And, sadly *that* was the year that Gus's cheap Chinese Pyrotechnics ( and, under sized lift charges ) caused a major calamity...

After blowing ALL the fish out of Tim's Goldfish pond.- "Ya'll WATCH THIS!" sssssssssssss......ssss...BOMF!!

OH NO! It's heading towards the fish farm!

"OHHHHHH.......S%$#!" :surprised:

SPLASH...WHUMP! SPLASH......SPLAT!

"That can't happen again! Let me try ANOTHER ONE!" ssssssssssss.....ssss......ssss..........ssssss...BOMF!!

OH NO! It's heading toward the tent!

"OHHHHHH.......F%$#! :surprised:

THUMP...roll...roll...roll...KABLOOWIE!

After that fateful night, we never saw much of Gus again...:sigh: Rumor has it, he's now flying just Estes Rockets out of his backyard in Indiana...

Ohhhhh... I heard about that one-

"National Pin the Tail on the Donkey Tournament Players" ( hosted by the local Shriners Club ))...drunken brawl in the lobby at 2am after the bar closed at the Days..." :bangpan:

Brings shivers to my mind to even think about that one again.
