    Salmon Fishing in Oswego, NY

    Everyone I saw wasn't using bait -- they just had a piece of colored sponge or gummy bear thing on the hook. They were catching the salmon by snagging them. I was told the salmon weren't eating, just trying to get upriver to spawn.

    All Grass All Day in Pennsylvania

    I didn't get to meet Ernie. This was my first time landing at Farmer's Pride. You picked a great place to get stranded -- I really liked the airport. There was lots of activity, friendly people, and the town was close by. Thanks for the nice words about the RV. I'm having a lot of fun...

    International Vintage Sailplane Meet

    I can't believe it -- the weather this entire week in Maryland has been absolutely perfect for soaring: warm but not hot, blue skies studded with puffy cumulous clouds. If we would have had this weather in Elmira last week, instead of the overcast, rain and poor lift, I'd have logged 20 hours in...

    There's a Cherokee at our airport whose owner died. It has sat in a trailer for years and needs a complete restoration but it could be had for practically nothing. My brother-in-law used to own it.
