January 18th

After Vic cooked breakfast (bacon and crepes), I went to Lincoln for the historic aircraft day, and to meet Gary and take pictures of his Pietenpol Air Camper.  I set my phone to voice record, then asked him a bunch of questions about it, so I could write up a little bit for the EAA web page.  Ray, from Oroville, arrived in his Waiex, and it was decided that we'd all go to lunch.  There had been talk about me taking Vic's cousin, Mark, up for a flight, but he wasn't feeling up to a new adventure.  After dropping everybody off at their respective aircraft, I watched Gary do a circuit, then took the Flightstar out for a couple of circuits.  I rushed to get everything put away and headed home so we could take Mark to see Vic's dad, then go to dinner with her brother, David and his girlfriend.  Mark and David haven't seen each other for ~35 years.
