Trip report: flying to Yellowstone in a Grumman Traveler

Okay, for best weather (and not to interfere with OSH) it would have to
be in June, probably mid-to-late June. This is starting to sound like
a crazy idea that might be more than a pipe dream?

Best flying weather out here is September, no question about it. Not
the slightest chance of thunderstorms, not a cloud in the sky and about
80 every day, upper 40's to low 50's at night in that area. Next best
is August. June is only slightly better than May.

September, you say. Hmm...?

Jay would have to schedule it between two Home football games.

Does either side of Sept 23rd look inviting? g

Paraphrasing a little:
'Blah, blah, blah ..Atlas stirs restlessly in the hangar, saddled with a
full load of mogas, yearning to be set free -skyward- into yonder wild
blue.'

To be fair:
'Blah, blah, blah ..The airplane of minivans says, "Take the Honda. Take the
Honda ...it's got a CD player in it. Seriously, take the Accord to Montana,
you'll thank me later!"

Speaking of...The Hawkeyes play Montana on Sept 2nd. :-)

September would be far better IMO.

Yeah, sure, all you guys that (a) don't have young kids in school, and
(b) don't have college football in your community, say that September
is best.

In ten years, I'll be there. For now, September might as well be
January for Mary and me...

Ten years?
Does Becka have five or six years to go?
In two years you could leave Joe in charge of the house for a week or
two.
My senior year of high school, my parents took off for Europe for three
weeks leaving me in charge of four younger siblings.

Why does "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" come to mind?
