Hey Guys,
Ellen it's great to have you there on the trip. We would all be sitting hear just wonderering otherwise. Tell Ras we had a great Memorial weekend in Lake Tahoe and the Beech 18 just purred like a kitten down and back (which you probably know by know can intoxicate the most resistant passangers with a deep sleep) Keep up the posts and photos!!
