Cavanaugh Bay Fly-out - Priest Lake - September 4, 5 & 6, 2004

Everything good they say about Idaho airstrips is true!  What phenomenal flying and wonderful airstrips.  There were 10 NWAAC'rs who spent the long week-end at this fabulous resort.  They were Bud & Diana Seager, Bob & Pat Sells, Reese Thompson & Arlene Stinnett, Ted D'Vorak, Jon Haas, Jim Breuer & Carmen Eastman.  We all agreed it was one of the very best fly-outs ever!
