 The Hidden Cost of an Illegal War and Illegal Occupation:

DoodleBug Cascade Air Park..
May 10, 2003

Snohomish, WA..

DoodleBug does it again.. We went out to Cascade Family Airpark to give it a go.. After a lengthy site familiarization process, we punched the throttle and punched off the deck into great thermal conditions..

Power off, my initial climb took me to around 3,600 feet immediately east of Snohomish.. [Lake Stevens off in the distance]

Monroe..

I cruised back across the Snohomish Valley to Lord Hill.. Just off of the east end of Lord Hill there was a huge area of development.. After a brief exploration of the area, I found the goods and circled in strong lift up to 3,850'..

For twenty years, I have dreamed of thermaling Lord Hill.. The DoodleBug allowed me to experience it..

Prison Song..

Thanks to Ronnie and Nancy's mandatory minimum sentences, the US prison system holds more than three million people.. All research on successful drug policy shows that treatment should be increased.. And law enforcement decreased while abolishing mandatory minimum sentences..

The Monroe State Penitentiary doesn't look overcrowded from here..

Final Approach..

This end of the grass strip is a little narrow but oh well.. Here's Dave on final while flying his LiteSpeed and the DoodleBug powered harness..

Wow.. What a great day..! Except for the part where I was late for dinner..

Like the pictures..?
