I had assumed that a get together with a beer or two or a jug of    margaritas was the natural outcome of gathering more than one ultralight flyer    in one place. It certainly would be in the UK"

    

   Well Pat,  It seems that you are well aware of how    things should be, since you guys have been doing it (BC) and I am sure there    is some ritual regarding the actual process involved. Since this country is in    it infancy, and therefore, ignorant, so to speak.  I would be    glad, on behalf of the few reprobates that still drink,  to    have you show us "heathens" the proper way to celebrate having lived through    another glorious day of "Kolbing". I might even tell a few of my soon to be    world famous stories. With enough lubrication of course.

Guys, make sure you bring your own poison.  There are no alcohol sales on the reservation.  Skeeter requires after flying refreshment, and will be bringing his.   Also, my plane will be available for needed runs to Page.  

Skeeter.

BBQ's.  Nope.  In the past Arizona Dave & Eve put on a big feed at their motor home for everybody, and it was great.  Not gonna be the same.                     Lar.                 Do not Archive.

<<I am sure there is some ritual   regarding the actual process involved.>.

  

 There certainly is. Grasping the body of the liquor  container firmly in the left hand grip the small ring which you will find at top  and pull sharply. This simple movement will provide access to the amber liquid  concealed within. Hold the container above the head and turn your face upwards.  Open your mouth and invert the container and if you have positioned everything  correctly gravity will take over and transfer the liquid painlessly into your  throat.

 To my sorrow my days of demonstrating how to drink  8 or 10 pints of beer are over. A couple is my usual limit  now.. 

  

 << I might even tell a few of my soon to be  world famous stories.>>  Now to THAT, I look forward.

  

 Cheers

Amazing ! ! !  Must be a Brit thing.  D'you guys ever hear of such a thing ??  I'm sure I've heard of a similar ritual in Australia, and maybe Canada, too.  Wonder what happened here ??   The stories ??  I'm sure you'll meet your match over a few brewskies in the evenings. 

  

 I've got a feeling there's gonna be a heck of a party at MV this year..........                  Lar.                  Do not Archive.

Arty made it to Grants Pass yesterday at  about 4 PM and is due to depart for my strip in the next few minutes. The winds  are a bit cranky and there is fog on their way. Once they get over the Cascades  the winds are headed this way, but will be a bit brisk. If every thing goes  well, we will head out of here tomorrow morning and eventually see all of you at  MV.

Down here in Texas, it's a lot simpler than what the Brits do... we have one step:  "Lip lock on a longneck."

In other words, yuour planning on drinking a few and making up TRUE stories 

as you go along?

Just checking.

left hand grip the small ring which you will find at top and pull sharply. 

This simple movement will provide access to the amber liquid concealed

your throat.

I know you're not referring to Truthful Lar, 'cause I don't drink, but your phrasing is very apt.  Gotta love it.                       Lar.                 Do not Archive.
