Hobbs

After North Battleford, Virginia, Sassy and I made the 2800 km drive to Hobbs for the US Standard Class Nationals.

The drive took us through some very desolate areas in southern Saskatchewan, Montana,and Wyoming.  Colorado was the most inhabited state we drove through and then once into New Mexico is was pretty desolate again.  I think we managed to kill about 1,000,000 bugs with the motorhome on the way down, but the drive through the thunderstorms of New Mexico washed most of them off.

Today is the second practise day and as it was yesterday, the forecast calls for thunderstorms this afternoon and the comment from the weather briefing this morning was rig, take your glider to the weigh scale and then de-rig.
