Default Tumbleweed at Cloudbase

With our best Arizona soaring day this year so far ( a 500 km day with
some 7-knot thermals), I was astonished to meet a tumbleweed at
cloudbase (about 7,500 feet AGL). I've seen some funny stuff sucked up
in thermals before, but this was the biggest and heaviest.

That got me wondering what other folks might have met in thermals?

Mike
