One Kilomile

According to my calculations, I just passed 1000 total miles for 2010. That's not 1000 miles of running, but 980 miles of running. Still, 1000 miles should bear some remark, shouldn't it?

Blustery flying day

I took a nice flight in windy, blustery, cloudy conditions -- the winds were perfect for ridge and wave lift. I took a passenger, but we had to cut the flight short due to a sick passenger and a malfunctioning air-sickness bag.

I recorded the flight with my GPS watch, and am trying out the Google Earth Plugin, to see if I can blog directly to Google map plugins to the blog post. If this doesn't work, I'll just delete this post.

The Blogger wouldn't allow me to display the google Earth plugin directly in the document, so I had to make an external web page, instead:
