Reno: Saturday, Sept 13, 2008 from Indy Transponder by MSouders
My apologies for not getting this out last night. I went out for dinner with family and when we got back, I was DONE! The weather here has been ideal for racing; however, I made the mistake of getting myself a bit dehydrated Friday, and I spent yesterday in slow motion recovering. I drank LOTS of water yesterday. I didn't want to make the same mistake twice. I also wore long pants. I had to save the backs of my legs! They got burned Friday. Shame on me. (Note to self - that list of "things to bring" you posted for the Indianapolis Air Show applies here too!)

2008 Northwest Georgia Transportation Expo Air Show by Lindy.
It was hot as sin yesterday. Not just kind-of hot. Not just Georgia summer hot. Humid, hazy, 98 degrees over there in the shade but you're on airport blacktop at 1 p.m. and there's no breeze hot.
What an absolutely perfect day for the 2008 Northwest Georgia Transportation Expo and Air Show.
