"Flo" has her race clothes on and we are ready to go! Wonderful husband Bill went out this morning to apply a little more wax to the wings, while the team packed up and dropped off our suitcases to be shipped-courtesy of wonderful husband John:) And wonderful husband Jon has made all the plans to get the Bonanza Boys to the terminus in Harrisburg PA by Wednesday.

Thursday June 12th we plan to lift off around 7am for our 4 hour flight to Concord CA. Once there, we will have credential check-in, and our hostesses from the San Joaquin 99s have arranged for us to go tour the Viano Vineyards, the oldest winery in the County. Still owned by the same family since 1886, we will tour the winery and sample their fine wines.

Friday the 13th is the deadline for racers to check in. We will have "Flo" inspected, and then we turn in our keys and she is impounded until race start on Monday morning. The mandatory weather briefings, safety briefings, and fly by briefings will carry on through the weekend.

But in spite of all those briefings, we will still be very social! Abingdon Watches is hosting a Clocktail Party at the Jet Center prior to our barbecue on Friday evening. Saturday is the Start Banquet, and Sunday we hope to be done with meetings by lunch time and take a quick trip into San Fransisco.
