Just be glad no one's thought of running wires up under
balloons ala WW 1.
Around here the geese have it so good they hardly ever
leave the ground.
In Victoria, in the 60's, they told us to watch out for two
things. One was flying spider season. Those little suckers
would climb to the top of trees, run out a long filament
and let go, sailing away over the countryside. Just as bad
as ice on the wings.
The other was hunters. They weren't allowed on the property
but nothing stopped them from lining up around the fences
and blasting away every time some poor sod took off and
scared up a blimp of birds.
Nowadays the big problem is Turkey Vultures. They finally
figured out that Southern Vancouver Island is a very safe
place to raise young and Pat Bay airport, aka Victoria
International, is thermal city. Fortunately they're almost as
big as airplanes thus fairly visible in the circuit.
Oh, and you guys flying behind the geese, why don't you
just take your place at either end of the V? :-) :-) and :-)

Is the fire in Burns Bog posing any problems for you or is it just
moving all the smoke inland.My Son ,who lives in Burnaby ,told me about
the fire and last night on the news they said it had increased to 9
times it's size the day before.They can't seem to control it or put it
out.
