Well it was the 1^st of January and as tradition dictates all R/C Clubs must fly this day or suffer the wrath of the R/C gods that make it rain on every event. That being said, the day was a really mild day in January. We had a really good turnout of over 16 pilots and a bunch of spectators.   The temperature was around 40 degrees and the ground was slightly snow covered. Just enough so I couldn’t take my plane off without a carrier launch from Dave Rollino. The club supplied coffee and donuts (dunkin’ of course) which went pretty fast. Tommy was the self appointed donut guard and didn’t let one get past him.    

I think we all had at least three maybe four flights before we called it a day. Some of us went to the dinner after for something to eat and some hot Coffee.

Thanks to the brave souls that went out New Year’s Day, the R/C gods have been satisfied for another year.

Thanks
