November 21

Arrived in Tenancingo on November 20th. It is nice to be home in my place. After going though the house to familiarize myself again with everything, Daniel Miller showed up at the door. I wasn't quite ready to go flying but what the heck, the weather was calling for a flight. After scrambling to get ready and a catch up session, we took off to La Malinche. Once we arrived at launch I was pleasantly surprised with all the changes. Boy Daniel Pedraza has done a great job in creating a world competition launch site. And he is still working on it. He even build a Cabaña for BBQ's and gatherings.
So needless to say, it was great conditions not to waste time to get into the air. Daniel launched first and I was about 10 minutes behind. Ok... just to let you know, if this blog sound funny at any time, I am into the tequila...
anyway, we are cruising along the house thermals up and the ridge. Daniel is up then me, back and forth we go. you need about 300m above launch to cross over to Tenancingo. well finally I caught a thermal that takes me to about 600m above launch. I look where Daniel is and he was scraping the bottom. I decided not to wait and go. once I had crossed over I got up and down 200m lift and sink. but I stayed up. So I decided to bump around Tenancigo and do a little sight seeing tour. Since I had only some Breakfast, my tummy started to feel a little funny. And no it wasn't the tequila the night before. so I decided to land. But I have to tell you, the landing field was not the same that we advertise. They have bulldozed the original field and now they have a market on it plus the was a circus in town at the same spot. so I landed in the next closest soccer filed. Well, that is about it for today... I had a great flight! Common Down!!!!!!!!
