Hi Mike:

How are you enjoying JIP? I once visited the General (he's a
clansman of mine) and had the tour of the lair on top of the North
Mountain).

Our friend Tedd has a few of us doing formation work on Sunday
mornings in a collection of airplanes (Colt, Turbi, Citabria) as
various members work on or save for RVs.

Cheers,

Hammy
