Default How About Story Time

Regional glider contest @ Dansville, NY....coming from SE heading home...got low...landed at Avoca....landed short, (ASW-27?)...,plenty of peeps onsite to get a 2 seater aero retrieved.....I landed, towplane coming in, I was ready, shoved back 100' or so....hooked up, off I went......
Later, looking at scores....I had a good day....sigh....went to Charlie Spratt and stated...."I landed @ Avoca.....I get a landing there....".....
Yes.....correct going to do....I still wouldn't have won the contest.....I was honest....still funny that I had a completion that day.....fun day none the less.....fastest aerotrieve I have ever had.....:-).....
