David we will be having a fly-in at Portsmouth (KPMH) next month. I hope to see you there. I will be driving up today. LLWS potential across the route. 50kt winds forecasted at 3000 near Ft. Wayne (FWA). Flight plan altitude, 37kts @ 5000. Not worth the bumpy ride or upsetting the plane. I will be leaving shortly.

We had two member aircraft arrive for our fly-in on Saturday. I ended up driving up due to the forecast of LLWS along my route of flight. It was worth the drive. I always enjoy meeting and talking to our members. Conversations ranged from power settings for instrument approaches, ADS-B, Branson, helicopters, and BACFest 2017. In attendance were Larry and Mary Newland, Mike Risko, and John Redmon.
