    We got some badly needed rain recently. Pretty close to the first this year. our little creek swelled up well beyond its banks with all of the recent rain. (see attached picture below) I was curious whether or not the Sheep head range behind us got any of it, and was hoping that there was enough to fill the ponds up there. We have had a pretty serious drought for the last three or four years, with every thing drying up last year. Our normal water for the year is reputed to be 4.5 inches. Not a whole lot. The rain that we got was in excess of 1 inch. It appears that most of it sunk into the ground where it belongs. The weather abated enough that I rolled out the Kolb to get a first hand view. https://vimeo.com/128531834 password - owyheeflyer The video is in 1080 HD, so if your connection is a bit slow and jerky, after you start it, pause it and let the down load get far enough ahead that it will run without jerking, or reduce the file by clicking on the highlighted "HD". Since I needed to get up to 6000 feet, I began my flight using my HACman system that allows me to adjust my fuel mixture, thus leaning it out. The normal fuel burn listed for for the HKS is 3 gph. I ran the engine at max cruise of 5800 RPM's for most of the flight. After arriving back at the hangar showing 66 minutes on the meter. However there was warm up and taxi time in there as well. Even so I saved 1/2 gallon of fuel by using it.
