Thought you would. This was taken by Marty Periard of Vintage Wings at Geneseo from the back seat of the Mustang, he graciously allowed me to post it. Thanks Marty!

Would have been interesting to see TE308 and SL721 formed up together again since both were at one time owned by Woodson Woods and flown by Jerry Billing.

Thanks 225. Boy is that a different scene. It was a nice summer day there, neither too cold or too hot. Right now, it is for sure winter here, we are buried in snow and it has been that way recently. It is GREAT skiing if you can get here. Driving is not too bad, but lots of flights heve been delayed or canclled for IMC weather, both here and delays in Chicago. Those folks that are here are certainly having a white Christmas in winter wonderland.

Anytime Bill! Just something to look forward to next summer. Our snowbanks hit the six foot mark here and more is coming down.

While Bill was off on the starboard side this was Marty's view on the port.
SL721. To see them together go to this link.
