Diverted Flight

My flight on Saturday was diverted (not a land-out) because of weather.  There was a thunderstorm over Post Mills Airport so I landed at Smith Field in Lyme.  Both 2-legged and 4-legged natives were friendly.   Here is Terry (2-legged) helping to load up the glider with the others (4-legged) wishing they could help too.

Thanks Dan for coming to get me and Evan for towing (I guess).
