I was there having a late lunch on Friday. We drove in after a rifle match near Manvel. Great food and got to see a fine specimen of a twin Comanche. No other airplanes on the ramp out front at the time. Next time I'll fly in for sure.

Wow... the area around Coulter has sure filled up. I remember when the airport used to be in the middle of nowhere...
I also remember when Bryan Lake and the Dansby power plant were built.
Thanks for the memories, although you are making me feel old.!!
Yea, tons of new neighborhoods popping up. Central TX is getting over populated. Time to strap on a sixgun and head to AK!

Dinner trip to Kentucky Dam with the fam. Patti's near M34 has the best 2 inch thick porkchops and steak in the country. Worth try if you are ever nearby.

We need to have a fly in there. How hard is it to get from the airport to Patti's?

Not hard at all. They'll send a shuttle to pick you up.
next family trip will be to ksik to dine at Lamberts. they are known to throwing bread across the room at you. and they send a limousine to pick you up.

Lol... it's a van, but it is very cool that they pick you up and take you in the exit to the front of the line. If you're waiting more than 15 minutes; call again, they forgot you...

I couldn't eat more than half. They are the biggest porkchops ever and so so good.

Finally got some good flying weather yesterday and took a flight to Port Clinton Ohio and Put in Bay.
Right on the Canadian border.
Put in Bay and Bass islands in the rear view mirror. I did land at Put in Bay and Port Clinton to get fuel. Plan to take the wife back one of these days.

I very much hope that one or both of them end up being bitten by the flying bug! Would be great to see them learn to fly.

Right place/ right time this afternoon; got a Vision Jet ride. Hangar neighbor was going up to do vfr maneuvers (stalls, steep turns, practice engine out, etc) and I tagged along. Pretty fun.

He does lifeline flights with it too. Guy just loves to fly. He's got 500 hours on it already. Half the fun was his enthusiasm.
It shows it as an 1124 west wind on Foreflight.

Quick hop KSTC>KSTP to get brunch with my girl at Holman's Table this morning.
I just transitioned from a 172R to the 182RG. Starting to get a hang of this unit, definitely more difficult to grease landings. I flew the Skyhawk a few days ago for the first time after logging ~20 hours in the Skylane and it felt so low on power I nearly rejected the first takeoff.
