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!
