[NSRCA-discussion] Winter break

[Jon Lowe]

 I live 90 miles south of Nashville in Huntsville, AL  So far this year I've had 6 flyable days, and I've flown on five. Today is one, but it will only reach 50 degrees.  Nashville is usually 5 or so degrees colder.  Snow is predicted here later this week. Weather here is uncertain at best.  You need to get to at least the panhandle of Florida to have anything you can count on this time of year.

I have been dying to do this very thing. We are actually thinking about doing a little D4 migration south for a long weekend (short week) of pattern flying. I think someone mentioned Nashville, TN as possible destination but my memory is a little fuzzy. It was in response to my original question; how many hours south do I have to drive to get to decent weather for a few solid days of pattern flying. From Northeastern Ohio we figured a good 10-11 hours should get you to about 70 degrees depending on the time of year.  

If someone is planning such a trip I would love to pack up and join the caravan!

I have an off the wall question for the list.
I'm not a winter weather person.  That being said I probably 
couldn't live in a worst place but you have to go where the job is.
When we lived in Lincoln it wasn't so bad since there was so much to do there.
Since moving to Iowa 5 years ago it's been a different story.
OK...enough of John's pity party.
I've come up with an idea.  I'm thinking about, starting next winter, going south
for 5 - 7 days.  Somewhere I can get a week long membership in a club, hole up 
in a Motel 6 and fly for a week... Something to look forward to the first half of winter
then something to last me until spring.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to where?
Thanks!
JLK
