  Takeoff, nose above the horizon. Takeoff, crosswind from the right, cold. Glad we came out of a hangar... no frost on this airplane. This will all melt... in a few days. Fosil Creek Reservoir is not frozen.

  Yes! Her house is down there. Turning around for another look. Fort Collins HP site. HP parking lot is empty on a Saturday. Hey, are those flat landing areas?

  Can't see if Charlie is home. No tracks, nothing moving. Great wind breaks at Charlie's. Still nothing moving. No, those are not goose blinds. They are bales.

  In 3 days the solar plows will be out and this, too, will melt. The road is open... eastbound. Once around Charlie's! See, told 'ja... bales!
