Default If this doesn't verify it...

I flew down to Harris Ranch today for lunch and landed on the
freshly repaved runway. I took two non-pilots with me as well, to
help spread the gospel.

Holy crap, I just got back from there not 30 minutes ago. Its a pretty
cool airport. Were you by any chance in a 172 without a back window?
There was an older 172 leaving just as we were about to shut it down
and fill up.

Theres an airport about 150 miles north of where I'm based called
Willows that I used to go to just about every night for a solid month.
Theres a really good cafe there that gets a lot of business. I just
counted in my logbook, and since August 1st, I've been there exactly
32 times. The reason it's so popular with the flight school I work at,
is because it's open 24 hours. Most other airport cafes in the area
have ridiculous hours like noon to 3:00PM Monday-Thursday. The only
time a plane is available long enough to fly there and back is during
the night, so it works out well. Oh, and the pie is the best in
California.
