Team SOSA Update - Tuesday July 09

Well, folks, today was a good day all 'round. 
-The weather was the best yet, and I got to bathe
 
- we got in a contest day for both classes,
- Chris Wilson in W2 won the day in Club Class,  due mostly to my highly polished wings
- Chris let me off the trailer leash to come to the clubhouse and be at his beck and call.
- here is a picture of him becking, or maybe calling, I get the two confused
- for me, it was great to be away from the trailer, and to be able to pick my own table scraps. That lazy raccoon is no real comfort. Boy, do I ever miss "J B" my erstwhile pet groundhog.
- another bonus for me is that Master Wilson said that I smelled like Jeffrey Dahmer's refrigerator and insisted I have a bath before serving him.
- here is a picture of me, naked, in the GCC clubhouse, using a Montreal Soaring Council flag, donated by Yves Bastien, KI, as a bath towel. After I had used it, he did not want it back, and he very kindly said that I could use it as a ground sheet under the trailer. Yves, you're the best.
- Oh, did I mention that Yves landed out, yet again?
- it was Sonia Hildesheim's birthday, and here is a pic of the family celebrating with the Club Class leader, followed by a fireworks display (I was able to use the diversion to run off with about half of the cake)

Well, I've got to finish this cake before the raccoon family gets back from their nocturnal prowl. I am glad that the club Wi-Fi extends out to the glider trailer parking area.
