Gary aka "digger" and Deb made it. Don "poitras" made it. Me and mine made it.
Thanks to every one who made it in. For those who was not able to make it I will not tell you about the excellent fried chicken or the home made biscuits, creamed corn, green beans, country ham, mashed taters, cabbage, stewed apples and sweet tea.
I'm sure I forgot something. There was so much food there it was kinda hard to keep up with. I was full before I started.
O yea the sweets. I will give you a break on that.
Blue Grass playing out on the porch. Got to love it.
But the best part of all was meeting BAC's finest. Me and my family had a great time. My daughter wants to know when she will get to see Mis Debbie again. She said it's OK if Gary comes to. These really are some great people.
Im working on posting the pics now.

The pics are in the gallery under Mid Atlantic Fly-Ins Ashe Co. As you can see by the wind sock, winds calm?
I can see I need a better camera or at least some one who knows how to use this one. There were more pictures but some are out of focus. Fun times any way.
Hope every one made it back safe. Don? Gary?

Don , Sorry I missed it. sounds like a great time . You had your hands full with the list of characters you had there. On behalf of everyone , Way to not get discouraged when a fly in gets postponed and keep it going. I will make sure everyone gets there shirts and the Air Czar will take care of the points . Lets keep the fly-ins going !!!!
Don "Poitras" arrived safe and sound after a sort of sideways take-off from Ashe. 
I've got pics, but I can't figure out how to add to your gallery. I uploaded to my "Poitras" gallery though, so you can copy if you wish. Thanks for hosting a very enjoyable lunch! I'll definitely be back when I visit my niece in Boone.

Yea strait across. There was a lot of bumps to. Digger and Poitras still made textbook landings wish I could say the same.
"I think Mis Deb was doing the driving"
I was departing one zero and noticed a cherokee on finale just after lift off. He was on the wrong frequency on a strait in for two eight. I visually checked both finales before entering the runway as usual and did not see him. I'll take bad winds over inept pilots any day. Maybe I'm being to harsh we all make mistakes at some point or another. Lord knows I've made mine and I'm sure I have plenty more to come.
Cant expect much much from a cherokee driver anyways.
