Looking forward to it. Brother Steve has already been arm twisted

this time. Need to look at one day vs. two in getting to IOW but

that's
all part of the planning fun.


It should be doable, but it'll be a long day. You have three things
in your favor. Prevailing winds should be on your tail most of the
time, going from west to east. There's a lot of daylight in July, so a
pre-dawn start will get you across most of the mountains (and the
building T-storms) before lunch. Lastly, you have a carbon-based
autopilot in the left seat to spell you from time to time.
