Leaving for the contest at Albert Lea, MN (this is Colorado on May 24, 2002, at 5:30 A.M.) |

| Two of my three crew members. Above: Andrea, on her 15th birthday, below: Christine (13) |

| In spite of my excellent crew - undobtedly the best of the contest - their pilot was clearly not up to form and the opposition wiped the floor with me, so to speak. However, I did manage to get first in the Boulder Summer Soaring Series (after I figured out the rules). Below: plotting for victory with Sheila, the chief of the crew on September 2, 2002 at Salida, Colorado. |
