As we turned in last night coyotes annoucned there presents in the woods just north of the hangars. It remindered we of listening to them as a kid in Sprague. These guys sung for a good 5 minutes before deciding to move on. Maybe they were voice there opinion on the brightly starlite Mb skies. We awakened this morning to the usual sounds of airplanes departing on training flights out of Harv's. My phone soon annoucned a message from Joe. The weather across Sask. did change and it put a stop to his plans of joining with in Steinbach. Lawrence and I had breakfast and decided to have a look at the weather that Joe with refering to. It looks like we may be required to change of plans and start ruling in or out some of the legs we had hoped to fly. At this point heading to The Pas looks like that will not be possible. Sprague my mine hope for the trip looks like a excellence possiblity on Wed. but as it is only an hour away we hope to be able to look at that leg earlier. I have a wedding in Steinbach today and after that everything will depend on what the weather will let us do. 10:15 am More after we see tomorrows weather report.

Hi Guys, I was all warmed up, hangar locked, when I phoned Edmonton FIC to file a flight plan and check the weather. I was surprised when the FS Specialist listed off two SIGMETS with a line of thunderstorm activity across my flight path in southern Saskatchewan. This had not been forecast as of last night. I grumped around for a few minutes before I was able to accept that I wouldn't get my annual cross country adventure in this time. Lack of available time means it doesn't make sense to fly out there only to have to turn around and fly back home right away. Hopefully, the weather will not be too bad for you guys and you can have some fun exploring Manitoba a little bit. Take Care, Joe
The weather Joe is talking about was here a few days earlier, so I would not have gotten out to join you anyway. It still hasn't cleared up here, no flying at all with 100 - 200 foot ceilings and lots of wind and rain. Enjoy the "southern" weather guys, and blue skies and tailwinds all the way home.
