Default RE: flying in winter

Landed a nice basement remodel job about 2.5 miles from our clubs site. I haft to pass it by each day. Descided to toss one of the planes in the truck "just in case" . This week the winds have been 40 - 50 mph cold and dreary looking. The folks let me put the plane and field kit in their garage so I didn't haft to transport it back and forth. Well I went out around 11 am for a breath of fresh air and the sun poked out and winds let down so I ran down and got a good hour of flying time in before the winds started blasting again... That was the best, It's was like playing hookie and doing your favorite thing. That motor really wanted to kick but today. I guess it was all that pent up energy from passing the field every day and not turning in. \/\/3\/\/T
