I've been laid off for the season, and am now sitting on my deck, looking over Pelican lake, watching planes take-off and land.

There was 2 parts to this post. Part one was to see where eveyrone was today. Part 2 was to see how long it would take for Chipmunk to post. Airwrench guessed within 9 minutes!
