After a good, howbeit cool night at Parr's, we fueled up and headed for Moosomin. We lifted off at 9:24 and arrived at Moosomin at 11:28. If an atempt to land on the grass strip we had to opt for the gravel strip. The north quatering crosswind that had been pushing us from Parr was now testing our skills at Moosomin. We made it safely to the ground and Mr. McLeod was out to greet us. We fueled, had something to eat, visited a bit and are soon ready to push on to Gladstone.
I must say that Moosomin is a beautiful stop if you are journeying across country. There is an excellent and very well kept club house. This is a farm strip and as we arrived an old gentleman who happened to be out stooking wheat in preparation for a old time thrashing event visited with us. Moosomin AP hosts about 300 people to this event. Pretty neat to see the many airplanes and especially the owners Super Cub.
