RE: Weak Signals Contest
Drop "11452 Minx Road, LaSalle, MI" into Google Maps and it put a marker right at the entrance to the field. Switch your view to satellite to see the field. You can see the clubhouse and the covered shelter behind the flight line, There is 120V available on every support post of the flight line shelter. No need for generators (except for Brenner 
) Also, the trees you see on the North side of the field have been removed since this picture was taken.

The club did re-arrange the field so we fly facing North. They built a new clubhouse and flight line shelter on the South side of the runway. It is very pattern and family/spouse friendly. Indoor plumbing and all.

RE: Weak Signals Contest
Yes there are available outlets for charging, But with the amount of electric fliers they maybe full. I am not for certain but i think there are 6 outlets with two per outlet making a total of 12 under the shelter. There are also a bunch of outlets in the clubhouse. I am not sure if you are or are not allowed to charge in the clubhouse though.
Arch hard to believe you can still find last year's picture. Good looking guy on that lawnmower though.

And remember your not losing a daughter you are gaining a son in law to help with the heavy work around the house. New roof, New transmission for the car and on and on. Even moving the furniture before he paints your living room. Just remember Son in laws want to help it is your job to keep him busy when he comes over, otherwise he won't think you appreciate him.
