Critter's Lodge 2014

[Chopmo]

I took my 15 year old daughter to Critters Lodge near Centerville, Texas a couple of weeks ago (May 2-3). It was a lot of fun! It is similar to the big Reklaw fly-in in that it is held on private property where the runway is carved out of the woods. Wendall and Beverly Dillard are the owners and they really do it right with excellent food, real toilets with running water and showers. It is camping without the misery. I think I saw Brad there a couple of years ago in his Skybolt. Mine was one of only two biplanes there this year, the other being a Wichawk.

This youtube video captures some simple 180 hp Skybolt acro starting at 2:18 and my final flyby is at 5:07.
