    The first pic is of rimrock with the airstrip at the far end of the right finger of water . the strip was in great shape except for the cow crap , by the time I got back home it was well dryed and difficult to get off the plane . A small price to pay for a place like that to fly into . After tieton I stopped in at Easton state and then range creek . Hats off to the state boys and Washington pilots assn , they have done a lot of work at ranger creek. Was one of those days when it's fun to fly the cascades

    Hello All!
    I am from South Africa, and I recently sold my C170B to get the money to buy my dream.....
    A Kitfox5 ZU-DEC with lion pawprints on it. It has a Franklin engine in it, and this is going to be her home base. The Farm - beef and wool and the hangar is right next to my house.
    Very excited!

    Wow! That looks great Wannafly! What do they fatten in the feedlot next door?
    Nice looking town nearby too!
    I am amazed at the neat angular layout of all the farm properties.
    I see you also have a barn where you have access for animals to walk outside. a feedlot too?
    Is that a lunging ring for horses to the southeast?

    You all have the neatest yards.....
