* A little damp, but good to go...!

The grounds are wet this morning, & today will be very humid, cool & cloudy with very mild winds, but there’s not supposed to be any showers today. Yesterday was touch & go with the rains not fully hitting us until the evening. Nonetheless, our flyers who attended were very good sports. Those students (like Paula & Michelle) who had faith in good weather got in extremely good classes yesterday morning! Little Grace & Larry participated in our Sunday morning kids’ class. Those two have stamina! Michelle is developing her one handed take off & began on her swing. Paula made her first unassisted take off & is progressing with her swing! And, in a very exciting moment, our instructor, David, took his Knee Hang & back flip out of lines for the first time! That’ll be the first of many positions out of lines for him. And, instructor Jon G. got caught for the first time on our rig! “If you would lift me up, you must be on higher ground.” (Ralph Waldo Emerson) – Dino *
